I'm *very* interested in this. We are embarking here on an
ambitious project to centralize accounting and billing information
with user authentication and access control. We need something
scalable beyond 100,000 users, yet still be accessible through secure
channels on a nation-wide network. We are already using RADIUS for
dialup authentication on our Livingston PM-2e termservers.
Luckily, I'm not directly involved in the coding of that project
;-), but if you have any thoughts on alternatives to the traditional
UNIX passwd/NIS-based solutions, I'm all ears.
