freeradius and /etc/apsswd

hi, how could i use /etc/passwd to authenticate users? here is my config in "users" and radiusd doesn't like it: doug Service-Type := System Juniper-Local-User-Name = "ops" manpage for "radiusd" states: users Here the users are defined. On a typical setup, this file mainly contains DEFAULT entries to process the different types of logins, based on hints from the hints file. Authentication is then based on the contents of the UNIX /etc/passwd file. However it is also possible to define all users, and their passwords, in this file. thanks.
