Hi Peter,

My first line was my disclaimer, the last time we used an open source radius was cistron radius, which from the existing website now recommends freeRadius. If we were successful with Radiator, why would we spend time to go and review another RADIUS?

I know nothing about the current version of FreeRadius and I never suggested that I did. I was merely giving a +1 for Open's Radiator as we have used it for 8+ years supporting 10's of thousands of users.

In particular we had a requirement to do lots of re-writing of radius packets using handlers & hooks which no other product had the ability to do those years ago which can easily be done right out of the radiator config.
