freeradius-clinet that supports PAM & PEAP/TLS-EAP #86

Closed mlnx-omrigi closed 6 years ago

Hi, Is there any way to use this freeradius-client with Linux PAM and TLS connection? I saw that TLS is not supported in pam_radius_auth, so I'm asking in this repository because I saw that freeradius-client does support TLS.

Thanks, Omri.

freeradius-client doesn't support TLS. The PAM module doesn't support TLS either.

Realistically, it's better to use UDP for local networks. If you need to send RADIUS packets across the wider Internet, then you need a full-featured RADIUS server. There's a lot more than just TLS involved. e.g. fail-over, load-balancing, statistics, etc.
