Apple Mac OSX fans will probably like to know that with the kind permission of Aim Systems Inc, Radiator now supports Apple Directory Server + Apple Password Server authentication on OSX Server. The New AuthBy LDAP_APS module allows you to find users by LDAP in Apple Directory Server and to authenticate their password using Apple Password Server.

PAP, MSCHAPV2, TTLS-PAP, TTLS-MSCHAPV2 and PEAP-MSCHAPV2 are all supported.

This means that Radiator can now be used to authenticate wireless and 802.1X users against standard OSX user administration tools, allowing you to migrate all your OSX security using a common password and infrastructure. Radiator can run directly on the Apple Directory Server + Apple Password Server host or on any remote host (including any Linux or Unix host). The Apple Directory Server could be on the same host as the Apple Password Server or a different one.

The new support is included in the latest Radiator patch set and will be included in the forthcoming base release. More press releases…
