Sender: hackers-owner@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk I've got tacacs running on a freebsd (current 05/31) system. Problem I'm running into now: On some dial in connections that establish PPP there is a password on a specific IP address. When I ran tacacs on my sunos machine this was no biggie... just create a "user" with a name such as 127.0.0.1, give it a password and your done. Under FreeBSD this stopped working as most IP addresses are longer than 8 characters... sigh. What changes do I need to make to make it go? -Steve
