Hi, RADIUS is an authentication system used by ISP's etc for checking a userid and password when you dial in. I think the reference is looked after by Livingston: pretty much every network hardware supplier should have info about it.
Guess TACAS is the samr thing - but you will need to check it out by searching eb engines etc ;-) RADIUS can ceraintly be used for billing as it logs connections/disconnections. You might try asking on an ISP related mailing list as it is _the_ most common system so I am sure they would have lots of good tips and possibly a script or two you could use.
