(I sent this once and it didn't work, if you already got it, sorry)

is it possible to have radius log in a user on a machine other than the
one that radius is running on? I have gotten it to work on the same
machine, but that isn't what i need--

I have radius on machine A. The users home dirs are on machine B.
Most access via PPP, but I want to be able to have them access their shell
accounts too (they have 2 account names, one for ppp and one for their
shell). I want them to be able to log in with a terminal program, and
give their shell UID and password, and IMMEDIATELY get logged onto "B"
(even when machine A authenticates, I get a 2nd password prompt). Is this
possible or do I have to hack the radius code?

TIA,

-jamie
