tac_plus _is_ superrior to any radius i've seen so far.

and works well on both 2.1-stable and 2.2-stable.

i have a friend who has/is building a product that's using a database
instead of plain text file for the users file, scales into a huge
systems much more easier...

the only thing in tac_plus i dont like is the fact it requires cisco
hardware...

actually, while i comment, i'm getting between rock and the hard place in
thinking which to use, pm3 or as5200, the fact i could use tac_plus with
the as5200 makes it _very_ tempting box... but then again...
