The
pam_radius
module provides authentication services based
upon the RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) protocol
for the PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module) framework.
The
pam_radius
module accepts these optional parameters:
|
| use_first_pass
|
| |
causes
pam_radius
to use a previously entered password instead of prompting for a new one.
If no password has been entered then authentication fails.
|
| try_first_pass
|
| |
causes
pam_radius
to use a previously entered password, if one is available.
If no
password has been entered,
pam_radius
prompts for one as usual.
|
| echo_pass
|
| |
causes echoing to be left on if
pam_radius
prompts for a password.
|
| conf=pathname
|
| |
specifies a non-standard location for the RADIUS client configuration file
(normally located in
/etc/radius.conf).
|
| nas_id=identifier
|
| |
specifies a NAS identifier to send instead of the hostname.
|
| nas_ipaddr[=address]
|
| |
specifies a NAS IP address to be sent.
If option is present, but there is no value provided then IP address
corresponding to the current hostname will be used.
|
| template_user=username
|
| |
specifies a user whose
passwd(5)
entry will be used as a template to create the session environment
if the supplied username does not exist in local password database.
The user
will be authenticated with the supplied username and password, but his
credentials to the system will be presented as the ones for
username,
i.e., his login class, home directory, resource limits, etc.amp; will be set to ones
defined for
username.
If this option is omitted, and there is no username
in the system databases equal to the supplied one (as determined by call to
getpwnam(3)),
the authentication will fail.
|
| no_reply_message
|
| |
suppress printing of the contents of any
Reply-Message
attributes found in
Access-Accept
and
Access-Reject
responses.
These are normally conveyed to the user as either informational or
error messages, depending on whether the access request was accepted
or rejected.
|
| no_warn
|
| |
suppress warning messages to the user.
These messages include reasons why the user's authentication attempt
was declined.
