I think you have mis-understood me. I am not trying to sell you anything -- I am trying to help you! :-) You asked the list about a problem which was uniquely Merit related (see below). I was the logical person to answer the question since I know a little bit about this stuff... ;^) We have always had (for as long as I've been here) a freely available version of the Merit AAA Server (which I believe is where you started) and this has been the case for the past four years and it will continue. Your second problem (seemingly Ascend RADIUS related) was still worth my answering since you were complaining about the message which stated something like "radius1.merit.edu not found". There is only one piece of code in the entire world with that string built into it and that is our radpwtst utility. Not Ascend's, but Merit's. If you forget to include the "-s host" option on the radpwtst command, you may end up with this message, since radpwtst assumes radius1.merit.edu when you omit the -s option. I've only been trying to be helpful, and you seem to be asking me to stop trying to help you. So, okay, if that's the way you want it, I'm sorry to have bothered you.
