[RADIATOR] Heimdal Kerberos support added

[Mike McCauley]

OSC is pleased to announce that Radiator RADIUS Server now has native support 
for authentication with Heimdal Kerberos (http://www.h5l.org/)


Heimdal Kerberos is an implementation of Kerberos 5 largely written in Sweden 
It is freely available under a three clause BSD style license. 

Kerberos 5 (RFC 4120) is a highly secure system for authenticating and 
controlling access to computer resources.

The new Radiator AuthBy HEIMDALDIGEST module  works with Heimdal Kerberos to 
authenticate users against a Heimdal Kerberos Key Distribution Centre (KDC).

The advantage of using  AuthBy HEIMDALDIGEST module is that (unlike other 
Kerberos based RADIUS authentication systems), a wide range of authentication 
protocols can be supported, including:

RADIUS-PAP, EAP-MD5, EAP-MSCHAPV2 
(and therefore TTLS-PAP, TTLS-EAP-MD5, PEAP-EAP-MD5, 
PEAP-EAP-MSCHAPV2, TTLS-EAP-MSCHAPV2).

allowing more flexible integration of modern, widely used authentication 
protocols with a secure authentication back end.
