Hi,
I have a few remote user who use a PPTP based VPN. The server is running PoPToP (http://www.poptop.org/), and a pppd patched to support MPPE/MPPC for (some) added security. Currently, users authentication information is stored in plaintext in /etc/ppp/chap-secrets. I'd like to be able to put users into LDAP, and have ppp authenticate either directly against LDAP, or against Samba (with an LDAP backend). Any ideas on how I might go about this? Most of the docs I've seen suggest that you can't use PAM for authentication with CHAP, so it seems not to be as simple as I might have hoped.
Not related to samba, but I'm using freeradius to authenticate vpn users againts ldap (using sambaNTpassword attribute), works fine for months, and as a bonus we get a detail report of user activities.
poptop -> freeradius -> ldap.
