My boss wants me to move our icradius installation to a better radius. I 
believe that freeradius will do what we need, but I cannot easily find 
specifics on certain things and honestly am pressed against the wall for time 
on this. If some of these were answered in this list before i ask your 
indulgence. I have looked through the list archives but find only messages 
from 2002 and early 2003.

We would install freeradius 1.0.1 with mysql support and want to use our 
existing icradius database since it is so large.

1. has anyone written a conversion script for this? Initial comparison of the 
sql.conf file showed me an "op" field difference, but I don't see how it is 
used or field type/length or what information is contained in it.

2. I noticed in some of the msgs for ver 0.8 that freeradius did not support 
using NAS as a proxy from the NAS mysql tables. Does it do so now? Flat files 
are truly not acceptable as we use this information in other programs as 
well. We are proxy for 26 realms below us in the dialup food chain and need 
to keep their info in the database.

3. If a proxied realm sends us special reply items such as ascend data filters 
or custom time limits, does freeradius pass that along to our upstream that 
queried us initially along with the authentication OK? icradius does not and 
we now find that we need this function..

These are my main concerns. Manually converting a database is not a good 
thing:) so hopefully any major differences such as field lengths or new 
fields etc can be had in some conversion script.
