Brian, I wish that the SCP patch did what I wanted. But what I am looking
for is not what the SCP patch does -- I did look at it prior to sending
my message. The SCP patch on the FTP site:
- Requires that you have separate Puser, Cuser, and Suser stanzas
in your raddb/users file (YUCK)
- Only works with Unix-based authentication (which I do not use)
- Is for Radius 1.12 (I am using 1.16 -- a minor quibble to be sure)
I want to have a single entry for the user in raddb/users, and allow
the user to "force" a shell login via prepending "S" to their
username. I'll work on a patch to Radius 1.16 to do so.
