shadow are meant to be "shadowed and hashed" , so why store plain text password to it when you can use flat user file? or plain text password with backend opensource database ? it's not normal to put sugar on a diet "coke" , don't you think? > Else i would like to use digest authentication with openldap, where > passwords are stored in crypt format ( done by using migration tool from > /etc/shadow ). another suggestion is to use a backend database in storing crypted format password values via freeradius + PostgreSQL & MySQL , or LDAP combination?
