If your PAM is setup to do radius or LDAP, then that's where the passwords
will come from using XAUTH.

Whether or not to use certificates is a seperate issue from PAM. But it
will be the easier solution if you need to support windows, because you
dont want PSK based roadwarriors. If you are only hooking up linux
machines, you can use raw RSA keys with XAUTH (but then you could also
use it without XAUTH and not use user/passwords.
