    +    <para>Guacamole supports delegating authentication to a RADIUS 
service, such as FreeRADIUS, to
    +        validate username and password combinations, and to support 
multi-factor authentication.  This
    +        authentication method must be layered on top of some other 
authentication extension, such as
    +        those available from the main project website, in order to provide 
access to actual
    +        connections.</para>

    +        <title>Downloading the RADIUS authentication extension</title>
    +        <para>The RADIUS extension depends on software that is covered by 
a LGPL license, which is
    +            incompatible with the Apache 2.0 license under which Guacamole 
is licensed.  Due to this
    +            dependency, the Guacamole project cannot distribute binary 
versions of the RADIUS extension.
    +            If you want to use this extension you will need to build the 
code - or at least the RADIUS
    +            extension yourself.  Build instructions can be found in the 
section

    +        <para>The RADIUS extension must be explicitly enabled during build 
time in order to generate
    +            the binaries and resulting JAR file.  This is done by adding 
the flag <option>-Plgpl-extensions</option>

needs to authenticate.  It is 
    +            important that you know several key pieces of information 
about the RADIUS server - 
    +            at a minimum, the server name or IP, the Authentication port, 
the authentication 
    +            protocol in use by the server, and the shared secret for the 
RADIUS client.  If you 
    +            are responsible for the RADIUS server, you'll need to properly 
configure these items 
    +            to get Guacamole to authenticate properly.  If you're not 
responsible for the RADIUS 
    +            server you will need to work with the administrator to get all 
of the necessary 
    +            configuration items for the server.  These items will need to

extension, but, due to a regression
    +                        in the JRadius implementation, it is currently 
broken.  Also, if you specify
    +                        eap-ttls you will also need to specify the
