Using Cistron RADIUS since April 1998. Never with Lucent gear, but I've got a mix of Cisco, Jetstream, Patton and Portslave (Linux) NASes. It's a *very* stable product and has features not found in other (commercial) products. Never seen any problems related to Lucent on the mailing list so I guess should work out of the box. > How is that compared to, say NavisRadius form lucent??/ or other > proprietary AAA solutions.

OTOH Cistron is stable and has never let me down from the beginning. Support on the mailing list is excellent, something you'll likely miss with a commercial product. Be sure to d/l the latest version (1.6.6). > So, should i buy Navis (or whatever) Radius (and blame lucent if it > doesnt work) or should i just keep proving this jerks at work that > debian should be the only OS on earth (and hand parts of my anatomy to > my boss if it doesnt work)? > Hmm... why buy? -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Lucas Heise System & Network Administrator Laonet Service Center Vientiane, Lao PDR ------------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP key fingerprint = AB 1F EA D4 ED F1 A2 D2 74 D1 7A C0 2B 97 D2 E9
