I've been reading that recently that SER does not yet have any support for a PAM module.
Since their aren't any PAM modules, can SER send plain-text passwords to a Radius server? That way we can use PAM on our Radius server to authenticate and lookup accounts on servers running Kerberos and LDAP?
Or does SER forward credentials (digested or hashed) that it receives from a sip-client (say from a Cisco 7960)?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Victor

No, there is no support for PAM.

No. SIP uses digest authentication, that means ser receives digest credentials and sends them to radius server for verification. The radius server returns Valid/Invalid.

Yes.
