RE: PAM & Auth

Take a look at the Linux-PAM project.  They have many more PAM modules than Solaris.  Their page is at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/.

The Linux "pam_rootok" module might do what you want, when used with the "sufficient" flag, stacked above the pam_radius_auth entry.

Some of the Linux modules, including pam_rootok, compile just fine under Solaris.  So try building it and see if it works for you.

good luck,
Jonathan
