(RADIATOR) Unix Passwords

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Ricky -

I don't quite understand your question, sorry.

If you want to use the shadow file, you can either use an AuthBy UNIX clause 
and point it at the shadow file directly, or you can use an AuthBy SYSTEM 
(possibly with the UseGetspnamf parameter).

Have a look at sections 6.25 and 6.36 in the Radiator 2.18.4 reference manual.

regards

Hugh
