Hi,

an extension for this. I have written one that will use all built in php
functions so that there are no additional libraries necessary.
Currently, it only connects to the specified server and authenticates,
but it is written as a class and could be easily extended.
My idea was to write just a wrapper for an existing implementation and not to spend so much time for re-implementing a radius-client-lib. The quality of this library is very good (its a part of FreeBSD) and it implements radius with all features (auth, accounting), also vendor-specific (MSoft, ...) parts are implemented. Implementing a full featured radius-lib is a very time expensive task.
I imported the lib into the extension dir, therefore no external libs are used.
I also can easy re-import the lib if changes (bugfixes) has been made.

Of course having a class just written in php has also his advantages.

Why can't exist both together?

bye,
