  Because that's how security systems work.

  If that's a difficult point to get, I would strongly suggest that
you not write NAS software.

about the passwd in the database

2005-08-05 Thread Lee Bobby 


hello,everyone, 
  I am trying to write a NAS software which is located in the user PC.But 
now,I meet problems: 
  I have read some codes of freeradius-0.9.3,and find that on the SERVER 
the user-passwd is make out of the MD5 digest.I also find that the server 
use the real user-passwd from the database to compare with the user-passwd 
from the RADISU packet. 
  Any one can help me to resolve the problem? Why the user-passwd is 
turned into real passwd which is used to compare with the passwd from the 
database? 
  Thank you for all reading my poor English. 
regards
