This is the big issue for me.  I'm a Linux junkie and a GPL bigot and 
yet I still resent the 3 days of my life that getting FreeRADIUS working 
sucked away.  If Radiator has a web GUI that automates a lot of what you 
have to do by hand in FreeRADIUS, that's a big win for Radiator.

I'm also told that the Windows RADIUS server is pretty decent under 2008 
R2 & later, so if you've got Windows already you might want to see if it 
does the job for you.

Regards,
Paul
