I've built freeradius-0.9.3 under OpenPKG, but haven't had any particular
reason to update it as it's been Just Working(tm).

The version I've done has been hacked to use a gdbm hash for password
lookups from a private file to allow it to do *nix style authentication
independent of the underlying system's password files.  I've also modified
it to work with Annex 8000 RACs that have a broken checksum, and no easy
way to get fixed software from Nortel.  These changes are selectable using
normal package options, with_annex_md5_kludge and with_gdbm_passwd
(although I haven't tested builds with these turned off).

Democracy, n.:
        A government of the masses.  Authority derived through mass
meeting or any other form of direct expression.  Results in mobocracy.
Attitude toward property is communistic... negating property rights.
Attitude toward law is that the will of the majority shall regulate,
whether it is based upon deliberation or governed by passion,
prejudice, and impulse, without restraint or regard to consequences.
Result is demagogism, license, agitation, discontent, anarchy.
