We have a 3com/USR Total Control Rack with a HiPer Access card The problematic engineering-release code many of the 3com Chassis' run will cause you many more headaches than Radius and FreeBSD ever will.

I'm sure you've probably already checked out the rather verbose info at www.merit.edu/aaa. If you purchase the 'full' Merit package, you'll get full source code + many advanced accounting and user management features. It is costly, however, and the basic package is extremely flexible. > little bit, Setup a radius machine and had the rack authenticate to the Great, so you've already gotten a Radius package installed and running - the main 'hump' to get over by any means. > to authenticate to the Radius machine even for the Administrator account > and I dont know the correct parameters to set up on the Radius machine to You should be able to configure the Chassis to use 'local' means to verify Administrator... That's not really a Radius issue. -mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
