Freeradius on sparc64

[Chris Orr]

Hi,

I am having some issues with 5.1/sparc64 authenticating users with
freeradius to the password file.  It works great on 5.1/i386.  Same config
files.

Its really strange.
Im just curious if others have run into this problem, or if its my crazy
Netra.

Note: these next few lines maybe nonsense due to a lack of expertise.
I -think- Freeradius uses the getpwd function to auth to the passwd files.
Is there any chance that something is different between the i386 and sparc64
versions?  
Again, I apologize for my ignorance in this area.
Here is the output of uname -a

Thank you for any input on this matter!
