From the network administrator perspective, we prefer to use a 3rd party/central authentication system where feasible, to reduce the number of passwords entries in our network from Users*Systems to Users*Security_Domains, and keep a gpg encrypted file (and a physical copy) in a safe location of rarely used admin/root passwords that we only need in an emergency (e.g. when RADIUS goes down). -- Dan White
