This is the radius-1 server from Livingston.  There's an Ascend-hacked
version as well, which is a shade uglee, but perhaps a little more
recent.

The current scope of my plans includes login/rlogind/telnetd/ppp/pppd,
via an interface similar to 'iruserok()'.  If the login auth stuff is
trying to provide this sort of thing, then it makes sense to use that
instead.
