Thanks very much Alan, But I steel can't see clearly. "2 - What should I write exactly other than an rlm_ file ? 3- For a good beginning, what are the files that I should read first ? The files in doc/ ? There *is* documentation on the modules & the API." - To witch API do you refer? I try to resume my needs. 1- The user will enter his username and "password||OTP" (password concatenated to OTP in the password prompt) (possible with PAP but other methods like CHAP ?? what do you thinkn?) 2- The module that I should write must first authenticate the username and password within a MS Active Directory and then validate the OTP. 3- The user have access accept only if he is authenticated and the OTP is validated. Question: 1- since user should be authenticated within Active Directory, I thought about using the ntlm and kerb5 libraries. Doesn't this require using PAM configuration? 2- is there any better solution for this? thanks -----Message d'origine----- De : freeradius-devel-bounces+o.machani=oberthurcs.com@lists.freeradius.org [mailto:freeradius-devel-bounces+o.machani=oberthurcs.com@lists.freeradius.org] De la part de Alan DeKok Envoyé : lundi 18 juin 2007 13:47 À : FreeRadius developers mailing list Objet : Re: developping a custom authentication module MACHANI Ouahiba wrote:
I need to develop a custom authentication module to handle OTP authentication and integrate it to Freeradius server.
My questions are :
1- are files with rlm_ prefix PAM modules or simply authentication modules?
FreeRADIUS is not PAM.
2 - What should I write exactly other than an rlm_ file ? 3- For a good beginning, what are the files that I should read first ?
The files in doc/ ? There *is* documentation on the modules & the API. See also rlm_example Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/devel.html
