I'm in the process of doing this...so far,have not managed to enablee PPP
logins,but drew@j51.com has not reported problems when doing this.
I got my Radius from him.

What I'd really like to know about Radius is whether it can be adapted
for long user names...I would like to recompile my FreeBSD to allow
someone who has been longusername@elsewhere.com to not have to cut
down to lngusrnm@put.com [put.com is my new ISP],but Radius has an
8-character limit of its own...
