Package: libpam-radius-auth
Version: 1.3.16-3
Severity: wishlist

I just got the idea that libpam-radius could use some debconf questions
(taking the least intrusive path) about automatic integration with PAM,
for example, you could provide three options:
- use RADIUS authentication before local
- use RADIUS authentication after local
- use only RADIUS authentication (caution! see README)
- do not use RADIUS authentication (default)

Using the answer to the package could hookup libpam-radius automatically
to PAM.

This would also require a simple debconf handling of
/etc/pam_radius_auth.conf, to point it to the right server using the
right shared secret.

This is just my idea of a better integration, if I have some time in the
near future I'll put my code where my mouth is and provide some patches.
Sorry if submitting this bug without a patch seems rude.

Please consider this suggestion anyway.

Cheers
