The users' passwords are encrypted as they are passed between Portmaster
and RADIUS. In order to de-crypt these passwords each Portmaster and
each respective line in RADIUS must have a matching key to crypt and
decrypt these passwords.
On the Portmaster the key is set with the following command:
set secret testing123
Is this encryption strong enough to not get picked off by a skilled
hacker sniffing on a network connection?
Should I worry about this or not?
Thanks,
Jeff Northon
