FreeBSD as for 3.x (3.0 or 3.1) contains PAM modules for Tacacs+ and Radius. And at least Tacacs+ PAM module support only authentication (and doesn't support authorization and accounting). Standart pppd from FreeBSD 3.x can be compiled to use PAM (-DUSE_PAM), but I havn't tested how it work. If someone interested to extend FreeBSD libtacplus and Tacacs+ PAM module to support authorization and acounting pls mail me. > --- > Dmitry Samersoff, dms@wplus.net, ICQ:3161705 > http://devnull.wplus.net > * There will come soft rains ... -- Regards, Vladimir.
