RE: [Help-gnu-radius] Presentation and problem with pass

[Manuel Prada Mateo]

I have proven your solution and it´s OK, only have a doubt... after encrypt
the pass, can I decrypt it? I say this because "md5pwd" doesn´t generate
keys (like PGP) to decrypt.

It´s not I serious problem for my, becouse I don´t need to do it, but I
would like to know it.

Thanks!

Welcome aboard! And don't worry about your English: it's fine. Besides,
if you prefer, feel free to write in Spanish.

You can use the function crypt() for that. There is a small
package 'md5pwd', which you may find useful. It is available from

    ftp://mirddin.farlep.net/pub/radius/contrib/md5pwd.tar.gz

Md5pwd takes a plaintext password as its argument and prints the
MD5 hash on stdout. You can then copy and paste it to your raddb/users.
