I'm trying to set up a FreeRADIUS server in our organization, and the corporate preference is to run on Windows. I've got FreeRADIUS to compile and have successfully completed the PAP test (from http://deployingradius.com/documents/configuration/pap.html) to make sure it works. Now I'm looking to set up Active Directory authentication. To do that, all the documentation I've read is geared towards Linux servers running Samba. From what I gather, it uses the ntlm_auth program to authenticate to the Windows Active Directory, which returns "NT_KEY output, which is needed in order for FreeRADIUS to perform MS-CHAP authentication."
Is there a way I can do this on a Windows/Cygwin server? I tried to get Samba to compile and install to test if it'd work on a Windows server, but it needed Kerberos to talk to AD, and Kerberos didn't seem to want to compile without shared libraries, which apparently Cygwin doesn't support. Does anyone know any other programs that can be used to provide this authentication mechanism, that also run on Windows? Or do I need to do this on a Linux server? I've tried to Google for the answers to this without luck. Any help or pointers would be appreciated. Thanks. John H.
