Hi, Thanks for your reply Paul, it will surely save me time and work. I was wondering if there is some kind of "map" which explains how freeradius is structured and that could help me get a global view of the server + modules.

My question is: What would the best place to introduce this small mod be? rlm_exec in the authorize section, after your sql call? That should save on modifications to the server, and your encryption algorithm can be chanaged without rebuildig the whole server. It'll also save time when upgrading the server. -- Paul "TBBle" Hampson Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) [EMAIL PROTECTED] On a sidewalk near Portland State University someone wrote `Trust Jesus', and someone else wrote `But Cut the Cards'. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
