PAM Radius

[Sayan S]

Thanks Alan for the quick response.
I am referring to realm here, as RADIUS support realms, and we are using RADIUS to authenticate the users to Linux, so seems like we need to have all users contained in the same realm.

Is having username in user at realm form a valid unix format? I was thinking the first part of the user at realm should be the unix username though the radius request is sent as user at realm. Otherwise we need to have a comprehensive RADIUS-username at realm to Unix-userid mapping.

regards,
sayan

  You don't use realms in Unix logins.

  You just login as "user at realm".  That might work.
