46 .Nd RADIUS authentication PAM module
56 module provides authentication services based
57 upon the RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service) protocol
58 for the PAM (Pluggable Authentication Module) framework.

67 to use a previously entered password instead of prompting for a new one.
68 If no password has been entered then authentication fails.
72 to use a previously entered password, if one is available.
74 password has been entered,
76 prompts for one as usual.
78 causes echoing to be left on if
80 prompts for a password.
81 .It Cm conf Ns = Ns Ar pathname
82 specifies a non-standard location for the RADIUS client configuration file
84 .Pa /etc/radius.conf ) .
85 .It Cm nas_id Ns = Ns Ar identifier
86 specifies a NAS identifier to send instead of the hostname.
87 .It Cm template_user Ns = Ns Ar username
88 specifies a user whose
90 entry will be used as a template to create the session environment
91 if the supplied username does not exist in local password database.
93 will be authenticated with the supplied username and password, but his
