Anyone have any metrics of scale for when it's best to convert authentication for a RAS from local (/etc/passwd) auth to something such as RADIUS? How quickly do system auth method show themselves to be 'unscalable'? In addition how reliable has ppp(8) + RADIUS been for anyone who's configured it w/ scale (100s of users) in mind? ~ELH~ -- E r i c L.
