Hi, I'm trying to get freeradius 1.1.6 (debian) to work with pam_mysql
Why? you may ask, as freeradius already supports mysql. Well I have my reasons. The first being that I have already got an authentication backend setup using mysql that I'm using for among other things samba and email access, it uses mysql 5 crypted passwords which freeradius does not support. The really odd thing is that freeradius just comes back with access denied. I'm have tried running as root, but it makes no difference. I wondered if it was cheating and looking directly at the shadow file, but the source code does not mention it. Both exim and cyrus-saslauthd have no problems with authenticating users using the exact same pam.d config files, yet freeradius just sits there giving access denied messages.
