      I just installed pfSense 2.0 Beta into a virtual box machine.

      From what i searched theres no option to use local user database and have per user bandwidth.

      While i prefer to use an external RADIUS server i think that some users will prefer a local user bandwidth control…

      Do you plan to add Bandwidth attributes to local user manager ?

      Or, did i miss something ?

        Not in 2.0, maybe in the future. You'll have to use RADIUS.

          Its there any plan to use PAM or a more flexible user manager ?

          What about calling an external program that is user selectable and has standard input/output parameters ?

          This way we can have plugable modules for user authentication.

          At System -> User manager -> Settings Tab

          Authentication Server :

          Besides Local Database add External Program Or Script

          This makes a new option field appear

          "Program Path"

          Where you type

          /bin/something

          And the program is called for each user authentication

          With the format (< means standard in and > means standard out ) :

          /bin/something (No parameters due to security risk)
          < Login= <login>< Password= <password>< IP= <ip>< MAC= <mac>> Authentication={ ok | reject }

          BandwidthUp= <bandup>> BandwidthDown= <banddown>Program finishes
          etc…</banddown></bandup></mac></ip></password></login>

            I've never tried setting the bandwidth per username on pfsense 1.2.3,
            while for pfsense second, more difficult.

              We have RADIUS, LDAP, and local users. 2.0 won't have anything further than that. May change in the future.
