It's an ugly hack.=20
With it you have no way to access the userdatabase in the radius server and=
 set queuing based on the info in it.
AFAIR user and bandwith info is stored in flat text files and parsed by the=
 shell scripts.
One can ofcourse code something to make your life easier, e.g a parser conn=
ecting to a database and then altering the ALTQ/DUMMYNET rules based on the=
 info fetched from it, just as the shell scripts do.
