I've been googling, but after getting nowhere for a while I thought I'd ask for a direction to head in. I am replacing a RH7.1 box that was performing dial-in service using a pppd patched for radius support. I'd prefer not to do things this way and would like to use a more easily updated configuration. What I need it to do is do auth against a radius server and support windows clients. What is the RHEL/Centos way of doing this?
As I recall the Cistron sources still build on centos-4, but freeRadius is the future, and also builds on centos. I do not know the patches you are thinking of to the pppd; I assume we are talking about a multiport serial card to be worth the effort? More details are needed, but it should all still work just as it did on RHL7.
I am probably the last subscriber still on the RH PPP list, and at one time published a patch for an option back in the RHL days which fixed a broken RH option in the PPPD package for Windows unit support. Ask with specific questions if you hit a hard spot -- I still have two dialup ISP clients running local modem pools.
