Well, let me exactly explain what I want it to do, perhaps you, (or one of the list members) can point me in the right direction.

I want to get poptop (VPN) authenticate to an ldap database. so poptop calls pppd, who in turn connects to LDAP using one way or the other. Thusfar, I have seen some pages (not working ofcourse) that people authenticate to a samba server, that connects to ldap.

Until now I have a samba authentication server (no shares, or printers) that connects to LDAP, but i don't yet have a radius server. What is the easiest way to go? Connect to the samba server (running on the same machine) or setup a radius server?

And does anyone have a WORKING howto for setting up either one of them?

Thanks

You would use the radius plugin to authenticate against a RADIUS server which
in turn would be configured to authenticate against LDAP.

 Hi,

 I read on the net somewhere that ldap authentication was done by
 radius.so plugin?? if this is true, then I hope someone can help me
 with setting this plugin up?
