PAP needs cleartext passwords See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_authentication_protocol Am 08.08.2008 um 11:53 schrieb sphaero:
Hello,
I've been asked to setup freeradius to talk to a SQL Server database which contains users and passwords. This was not so much of a pain but I can't figure what password encryption is used. So I had hoped somebody with some more password encryption experience could shine a light here :)
In the database I've set a password to 'testing' which results in the database as:
DC724AF18FBDD4E59189F5FE768A5F8311527050
This looks like a SHA algorithm? I've browsed through the source code of the program that generates these password hashes. Indeed it uses SHA. This is the library they use: http://www.aspencrypt.com/object_context.html#CreateHash. They use the 'calgSHA'. But when I set the Password attribute in freeradius to SHA_password it doesn't match.
