Dear sirs,

A couple of years ago I was given a binary of tcpdump 3.4, which has the 
capability, when symlinked and invoked as 'tcpdumpr', to dump parsed radius 
packets. According to the man page that came with it:

     With  the  CPE01 patch, tcpdump has been enhanced to print
     radius packets in a human readable format.  It  reads  the
     radius  dictionary, clients, and vendors files to decipher
     radius packets.  The location of these files can be speci-
     fied  with  the  -D flag.  If not specified, the files are
     looked   for   in   the   order   /usr/private/etc/raddb/,
     /etc/raddb/,  /usr/local/etc/raddb, and ./.  If tcpdump is
     renamed tcpdumpr and there is no  snaplen  specified  with
     the  -s  option,  a  snaplen  of  512 used.  If tcpdump is
     renamed tcpdumpr and no "udp port" filter is  assigned,  a
     filter  of  "udp  port  1645 or udp port 1646" is assumed.
     Finally, the -C, -D, -m, -V,  and  -W  options  have  been
     added.

Browsing your site, I was unable to find any reference to this CPE01 patch. 
I would like to know if you are aware of this patch (I suppose so) and if it 
is available as part of newer versions, as it is extremely useful for my 
daily job. I would like to have it integrated into the source in order to be 
able to compile it, as I'm by no means a tcpdump specialist.

Additional clue: the tar file I was given showed the files as owned by user 
'meklund', group 'eng'. Perhaps this is familiar to someone among you.

Please let me know anything you might know about this. Thank you in advance.

regards,
cl.
