Change port for pam account radius request about pam_radius HOT 2 CLOSED

@sylvaing35 The latest pam_radius source code by default use the /etc/pam_radius_auth.conf as config file. Therefore, it's possible to use another file using the conf=/path/file for example here

from pam_radius.

RADIUS uses port 1812 for authentication, and port 1813 for accounting.

When you configure a server:port in the pam_auth_radius.conf file, it assumes that the port is for authentication, and the accounting is port = 1.

If you want to change that, then you can edit the configuration file. Or, edit the source code to add a different configuration option for the accounting port.

The module cannot send both Access-Request and Accounting-Request packets to the same port. Fixing that will require changing the source code.

Or as Jorge said, use a different configuration file for a particular use-case.
