Soon. I know I've been saying that for a while (too long now), but it looks pretty good. I have some code that has cleaned up a lot of the odd things in the server core, so I'm much more comfortable releasing a 2.0. So far, the features look like: - if/then/else in radiusd.conf - full IPv6 support - much more stable handling of home servers - separation of realms from home servers - addition of "home server pools", for failover & load balancing - magic feature 1 - magic feature 2 - :) I won't say what the magic features are. One will cause mild surprise. The other will cause great surprise. My plan right now is to test the code privately with a few early adopters who are sworn to secrecy. Once it looks like it works, the code will be made public, and a 2.0-pre0 will be announced. From my research on Google, the features will quadruple FreeRADIUS's potential install base. The features will also enable network administrators to do things that are currently impossible to do with open source software. And it looks like it's only 3k-4k lines of code. :) Alan DeKok. -- http://deployingradius.com - The web site of the book http://deployingradius.com/blog/ - The blog - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
