    Take a look at the Linux-PAM project. They have many more PAM modules than Solaris. Their page is at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/.

    The Linux "pam_rootok" module might do what you want, when used with the "sufficient" flag, stacked above the pam_radius_auth entry.

    Some of the Linux modules, including pam_rootok, compile just fine under Solaris. So try building it and see if it works for you.

    good luck,
    Jonathan
