Background:
we use freeradius to provide AAA for our wireless hotspots. We would also like
to use radius authentication for our layer 3 switches. This brings up the
question of security. Which
is going to be more secure, md5 hashed passwords in MySQL, or storing the
passwords for the switch accounts in the /etc/shadow file (I had to set the
file to world readable to allow the radiusd process to read the file…). Or
is there another, better alternative that I just don’t know about? Ben
