Since most users of our organization have mail account in our postfix mail server, I tried to use postfix user password that stored in mysql for authentication. Therefore there will be two types of user, i.e users with postfix user password (encrypted password)
That's the key.
I inserted a user in radcheck with cleartext password, and a user from postfix mysql mailbox table. So my radcheck is :
+-----+----------+---------------+----+------------------------------------+ | id | username | attribute | op | value | +-----+----------+---------------+----+------------------------------------+ | 223 | testman | User-Password | := | 123456 | | 225 | testman1 | User-Password | := | $1$bbf49e0f$MAcN54vB4L0wcKuYOCnQv/ | +-----+----------+---------------+----+------------------------------------+
Some changes: testman - use "Cleartext-Password", not "User-Password" testman1 - use "Crypt-Password", not "User-Password"
Test for user with postfix user password was unsuccessful
Because it was comparing "123456" to the "$1$..." string. They're not the same. The server needs to encrypt "12345" and then compare the encrypted string to "$1$...". Using "Crypt-Password" tells the server to do this. Alan DeKok.
