I am having the problem of no user being able to pass the correct password. The below message and the thread it came from did solve the problem, however I was wondering if there is another way to fix this problem besides forcing radiusd to run as root.

I had the same problem. Although daemon's group was listed as being member of shadow group it seems it wasn't working i.e. it was unable to read /etc/shadow file .....
