RE: [webmin-l] radius authentication for webmin

[Mait M. <Mai...@em...>]

hi Jamie,

well, actually i'd like to let ANY user that is allowed by radius to be
able to use webmin.
eg both usernames and password would be taken from radius. is that
possible?

if not, then how should i configure the /etc/pam.d/webmin file?
currently the file shows:

#%PAM-1.0
auth    required        pam_unix.so     nullok
account required        pam_unix.so
session required        pam_unix.so
