Well, if by "service types" you meant login, ftp, telnet, etc., then
what needs to be done is to convert ftpd, telnetd, etc. to use PAM
instead of doing their own authentication. For ftpd that will require
a few relatively minor PAM module fixes having to do with the fact
that FTP as viewed from the server is sort of an event-driven machine
rather than an interactive conversation.
That's what my near-term focus is on.
If you instead meant things like support for RADIUS accounting, that's
just waiting for somebody to come along and implement the necessary
support in libradius and the corresponding PAM module.
