Actually, Service-Type is both a check item and a reply item, although
different NAS's do different things. Some NAS's send it as a check item and
some don't, and some NAS's require it as a reply (notably Cisco) and others are
less fussy.

As Tom pointed out in his post, if the Service-Type = Framed-User (or
Login-User or whatever) is present in the Access-Request packets you can build
Handlers to deal with your different types of users (customers, admin staff,
network engineers, etc.).

Don't forget that the format of a users file entry (including DEFAULT) is to
list *all* of the check items on the first line, then all of the reply items on
the following lines (remeber the white space in the first column).

Again, your Handlers can match on multiple check items as well.
