All,

I got this working at the end of last year, but now I've having trouble.  I'm setting up SSH access using RADIUS auth on a Ubuntu 12.10 system.  Im using the latest version of libpam-radius-auth  (1.3.17-0ubuntu4) and have followed the readme along with many other explanations and can not get it working. I'm getting the same error even when I try on different VM's running different versions of Ubuntu.  The error "PAM (sshd) illegal module type: auth" makes it sound like it does not support the auth method. Anyone else run into this?

#cat pam_radius_auth.conf 

10.1.1.1    sharedsec       3


#cat /etc/pam.d/sshd

# PAM configuration for the Secure Shell service

# Read environment variables from /etc/environment and
# /etc/security/pam_env.conf.
auth       required     pam_env.so # [1]
# In Debian 4.0 (etch), locale-related environment variables were moved to
# /etc/default/locale, so read that as well.
auth       required     pam_env.so envfile=/etc/default/locale
auth       required  /lib/security/pam_radius_auth.so debug

# Standard Un*x authentication.
