Perl modules exist to do 99% of that work. > OTOH, I think these queries have been in the context of 802.1x in > which case this doesn't help (or else we need an EAP-DHCP :-) No, we need a RADIUS server that does DHCP, too. I don't think it's that hard, especially with the recent 2-octet "type" support for VSA's. i.e. ISC DHCPd is huge, complex, and doesn't support leases in a DB. FreeRADIUS already has a multi-threaded UDP server core with a generic policy engine, that back-ends to multiple DB's. The CVS head already has sql_ippool. It's not hard... really.
