using radius, i would prefer to see a set of ready to use radius profiles for "real world" application (e.g. ppp-, pppoe-, ppptp, ipsec-, wlan-user with MAC-autentication, ip-address assignement, routing, bandwith control, time-block, ... ) at least for the free-radius project.
long ago there were a large profiles example from ascend, it was much more helpful than the documentation itself.
i would like to see another radius example for authenticating local-services users through radius.
( i am never annoyed about the manual quotes, sometimes re-reading a particular page helps ;-)
