But does everyone need all the extra features? I don't see that much difference in the feature set of FreeRADIUS and NavisRadius 3.0 (except that FreeRADIUS doesn't depend on a reliable Java runtime). I currently use Cistron RADIUS with some local patches, and it meets my needs quite well. When Livingston started using Java for their GUI management tools, I thought it was a good idea. I don't like Java for a daemon that I have to have 100% reliability from though. I'd use Radiator (written in Perl) before using something written in Java. -- Chris Adams <cmadams at hiwaay.net> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request at bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq>
