(ASCEND) Radius and unix password files

[Colin M Shaw <sys057@abdn.ac.uk>]

Hi,

I wonder if anyone out there can help me with a problem.

We are running the free Ascend radius on a UNIX server. We want to
point radius at a UNIX password file by just having a default user
with the password UNIX. The problem is that we have a separate password
file for our dialup users - something other than /etc/passwd.
Has anyone successfully altered radiusd.c so that it doesn't use 
getpwnam and somehow gets passwords from a password file other than 
/etc/passwd?

Or is there another way around this problem as we really don't want to
have to dedicate a server specifically for radius?

Any advice is very welcome.

thanks in advance,
Colin
