Original Question:
Is it posible to run Radius authentication over NISPlus tables
Running on Solaris 2.6 march/98 ?
Answer:
Yes, the answer was found at http://www.ascend.com/faqs/22/641.html
and it says:
Question: How do you redirect RADIUS from looking in etc/passwords or
etc/shadow when using password=UNIX ?
Answer: Radius uses a UNIX system
call (getpwnam) to access the /etc/passwd file. This system call will
access whatever sources are specified in the nsswitch.conf file. The
sources are the /etc/passswd file, NIS and NIS+ databases. You can type a
"man on (getpwnam)" command for more information
regarding its operation under your version of UNIX.
Many Thanks to all who reply.
