Not that I'm aware of.
Here's the preliminary changelog for 2.1.7:
Feature improvements
* Full support for CoA and Disconnect packets as per RFC 3576
and RFC 5176. Both receiving and proxying CoA is supported.
* Added "src_ipaddr" configuration to "home_server". See
proxy.conf for details.
* radsniff now accepts -I, to read from a filename instead of
a device.
* radsniff also prints matching requests and any responses to those
requests when '-r' is used.
* Added example of attr_filter for Access-Challenge packets
* Added support for udpfromto in DHCP code
* radmin can now selectively mark modules alive/dead.
See "set module state".
* Added customizable messages on login success/fail.
See msg_goodpass && msg_badpass in log{} section of radiusd.conf
* Document "chase_referrals" and "rebind" in raddb/modules/ldap
* Preliminary implementation of DHCP relay.
* Made thread pool section optional. If it doesn't exist,
The server will run single-threaded.
* Added sample radrelay.conf for people upgrading from 1.x
* Made proxying more stable by failing over, rather than
rejecting the first request. See "response_window" in proxy.conf
* Add dictionary.iea (closes bug #7)
Bug fixes
* Fixed corner case where proxied packets could have extra
character in User-Password attribute. Fix from Niko Tyni.
* Extended size of "attribute" field in SQL to 64.
* Fixes to ruby module to be more careful about when it builds.
* Updated Perl module "configure" script to check for broken
Perl installations.
* Fix "status_check = none". It would still send packets
in some cases.
* Set recursive flag on the proxy mutex, which enables safer
cleanup on some platforms.
* Copy the EAP username verbatim, rather than escaping it.
* Update handling so that robust-proxy-accounting works when
all home servers are down for extended periods of time.
* Look for DHCP option 53 anywhere in the packet, not just
at the start.
* Mark proxy mutex as recursive. This solves issues on exit
with some platforms.
* Fix processing of proxy fail handler with virtual servers.
* DHCP code now prints out correct src/dst IP addresses
when sending packets.
* Removed requirement for DHCP to have clients
* Fixed handling of packets with message-type buried in the packet
* Fixed corner case with negation in unlang.
* Minor fixes to default MySQL & PostgreSQL schemas
* Suppress MSCHAP complaints in debugging mode.
* Fix SQL module for multiple instance, and possible crash on HUP
* Fix permissions for radius.log for sites that change user/group,
but which don't create the file before starting radiusd.
* Fix double counting of packets when proxying
* Make %l work
* Fix pthread keys in rlm_perl
* Log reasons for EAP failure (closes bug #8)
* Load home servers and pools that aren't referenced from a realm.
