* This is the VOP Radius mailing list * Luiz, Thanks for the info, it's helpful to us I assure you.
I see the solution you put in place.. I guess we could do the same thing, it's just pretty sad that we would have to run a free radius product in front of our "Paid for" Radius product just to make the commercial product do what we need it to. Oh well, I guess ya can't have everything.
