Discussion: MySQL authentication with PAM or Radius

Post by paco_chair » Mon May 23, 2011 7:53 am

Hello there,

I see many posts about PAM authentication with MySQL.

Just like to ask if PAM authentication is secure before OpenVPN establish.

I am considering the use of Freeradius with MySQL for OpenVPN user authentication.

Will it provide more security over PAM?

Finally, I see some effort on

https://github.com/chantra/openvpn-mysql-auth

It provides MySQL support for OpenVPN without the use of PAM or Radius. Anyone try it work or is there any similar solution?

Many many thanks,
