Hi Juergen, Thanks for the feedback. So far that's 2 votes (you and me) for FreeRADIUS and 0 votes for sticking with Cistron RADIUS. LDAP support is a reasonable request, though I don't (currently) need it myself. Looks like I need to add a Package for the OpenLDAP libraries which seems to need a minor change to our uClibc configuration (UCLIBC_HAS_WCHAR=y). That's OK but I'm not brave enough to make a uClibc .config change for the 4.0 release now that we've reached the 4.0-rc1 stage, so these enhancements will go into 4.1-beta1 once 4.0 is released. I will raise a Trac ticket for this change, so that we can comment on any questions I have about features to enable / disable. I will also start drafting a RADIUS Server page in the Wiki. davidMbrooke ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough.
