I am in the process of trying to move our user authentication from using the
FreeBSD /etc/passwd file to radius driveing an SQL database (possibly
ICRADIUS or cistron).

At the moment we have in the radius users file:

DEFAULT Auth-Type = System


This is because other services currently authenticate from the system
passwords, specifically:


Apache for the public_html directory access for each user
ie: http://x.y.com/~user

Cucipop for reading pop mail (Can't remember why, might be quotas)

proftpd for user to upload their pages to public_html directories but stay 
"sandboxed" so they don't peek at other directories.

radiusd for terminal server authentication.


My question is can either PAM, NIS, or some other technique be used to make 
the above daemons authenicate from a central radius server?

- Ernie.
