primary i want to demonstrate the functionallity of radius, but the
possibilities to demostrate it are restricted (i have just my notebook for this)... 

why windows? i thought that it is one benefit of radius that you have
centralized authentication there?! so i thought it would be an idea to demonstrate
how the radius server authenticates a user from the w2k ads and another user
from the unix passwd file? 

perhaps you can tell me about a good tutorial or another ressources where
the features of radius are explained or demonstrated!?
