Has anyone considered approaching Tim O'Reilly to do a dedicated FreeRadius book. The existing Radius title is ok as far as it goes and the two freeradius chapters are a plus but IMO it does not go far enough.
I would have thought that FreeRadius deserves to have it's own creature. Since Jonathon Hassels book features a molusc, I'd suggest an octopus (a higher order marine species).
He ( Jonathon ) is on the list ( or was in the past ). I'm sure as FR approaches 1.0 it would be worth considering a Rev 2 on the Radius book. Right now it is still in a semi flux state, so it would be worth waiting a bit longer before updating the book, IMHO.
There is a lot of stuff that FR does now that it didn't then, particularly in the LEAP/PEAP/TLS area that could serve to be covered, as many people are starting to use RADIUS to provide authentication for the LAN and WLAN environments.
I for one would cetainly be willing to assist with an update/addition to the book. :)
