I'm not sure which section you mean is relevant. Maybe this:
"When doing a PKINIT based Kerberos logon the KDC adds the
required PAC_CREDENTIAL_INFO element to the authorization data.
That means the NTHASH is shared between the PKINIT based client and
the domain controller, which allows the client to do NTLM based
authentication on behalf of the user."
That sounds cool, but I can already use ntlm_auth to validate the MSCHAP
passwords. Modifying FreeRADIUS to be able to do this via Kerberos
doesn't gain me much.
The other thing which I'd already noticed was the server-side storage of
GPG-encrypted plaintext passwords. It doesn't make a difference to
MSCHAP, but it'll be useful if I end up using an auth method which
requires the server to have the cleartext password (e.g. EAP-PWD)
Cheers,
Brian.
