Freeradius ships with a dictionary file named dictionary.unix, that contains the following attributes:
VENDOR Unix 4
BEGIN-VENDOR Unix
ATTRIBUTE Unix-FTP-UID 10 integer
ATTRIBUTE Unix-FTP-GID 11 integer
ATTRIBUTE Unix-FTP-Home 12 string
ATTRIBUTE Unix-FTP-Shell 13 string
ATTRIBUTE Unix-FTP-Group-Names 14 string
ATTRIBUTE Unix-FTP-Group-Ids 15 string
END-VENDOR Unix
Is the goal of this set of attributes to enable a Radius server to send back UID, GID, etc. information for a user that has been authenticated by the RADIUS server? If so, why use FTP in the name of the attributes? I mean, a Radius server will not be able to know whether the users being authenticated is accessing the target system via FTP, or some other service, right?
