No, they are the only options:
1. shared DBM file, shareed through NFS
2. SQL

Yes, if you are using radwho.cgi with DBM, the DBM file has to be accessible
to the CGI script; ie it must be visible in the file system of the web
server host.
You have basically the same options as above.
Hope that helps.
Cheers.
