[Openvpn-users] clear text file authentication script


  • Subject: [Openvpn-users] clear text file authentication script
  • From: "T. Heckler" <th@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Does any one have a plugin or able to compile a script for use with openvpn to allow the server to use a clear text file containing usernames and passwords to authenticate?

My reason for using such an insecure method is because I run openvpn as a server on a windows platform using certs, but I am unable to use PAM to authenticate with passwords too. The passwords can be stored in clear text on the server because it will be used as a secondary form of authentication along with the cert, and it is easy for the admin to change if a user needs to be temporarily denied.

Any help (beyond the obvious advice to install run it on *nix instead) would be greatly appreciated.
