I could probably put some custom stuff into Optigold ISP to allow for Radiator to authenticate directly from it, but to be honest, it would probably be easier to just wait until FileMaker Pro 5.0 in May. Which adds a two-way SQL/ODBC plug-in. In your "ideal" world, how would *you* want to autenticate from the Optigold ISp database? - Shawn --- Shawn D.

It works with a wide range of user databases, including flat file, DBM, password file, SQL, LDAP, Proxy etc etc, and runs on Unix, NT, Win95/98, Rhapsody etc. When it comes to SQL, it can work with almost any free or commercial SQL server. What we would really like to be able to do is to authenticate users directly out of the OptiGold database, and insert dialup usage records dorectly into the database. That makes for a very tightly integrated auth/billing/cust management package. -- Mike McCauley[EMAIL PROTECTED] Open System Consultants Pty.

I, for one, would sure love to see some integration between Radiator and Optigold. Greg At 09:17 PM 2/18/99 -0500, Novagate Systems Admin wrote: >Yes, it uses Filemaker Pro.
