Re: (ASCEND) Shadowed password aging and RADIUS
Hello,
I am using a similar configuration, radiusd (I have modified
source to support other features but did nothing about unix authenciation)
on a solaris 2.6. Although I use radius attributes for expiration I tried
locking a unix account using "passwd -l" and then tried authentication by
radius and it failed. Can you please check your shadow entry when the unix
account expired, that may help about solving problem.
