eeeaahch.... I was hoping to avoid that initial slog if at all possible.
I'm trying to implement this for a small outfit, and large
difficult-to-reinstall software packages are frowned upon. especially in
this case where half the features freeradius provides aren't even needed.

as with dhcp+dns=dnsmasq, I was sorta expecting that someone would have
come up with a lighter weight one-stop-shop by now. is this really not the
case? (or do these packages exist, but they're just not in the ports
tree?)
