We are in a very similar situation... we are leaving the NT RAS environment to
a Radius environment. How the heck do we pull the Username AND Passwors from
the NT SAM for use with Radius ?

Do any of you fine computer type professional know of autility that will allow us to migrate from our current NT SAM-basedauthentication to one that would be based on an external database file(like with RadiusNT).
I believe we can dump the a list of the users, but not thepasswords. I was hoping that the NT UNIX password sync would help,but that is not the case.
We have a lot of our early users that we have no password onrecord for (yes, we screwed up), and we really don't want to key allthose user passwords in manually.
Alternatively, does anyone know of a way to make aTotalControl look at an alternative radius file, if it cannot find theuser name in the primary location? We can make it look at asecondary location if the primary is down, but that won't help if we haveto migrate these users manually.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
