RADIUS passwords are always encrypted. If you want a "real" TACACS+ server, add TACACS+ support to FreeRADIUS. It isn't hard. i.e. probably ~2K LoC. But I haven't had the incentive to do it yet. After that, maybe ARP. I've been looking at the "arpwatch" programs, and none of them talk to databases. <sigh> Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
