Jayson,
I haven't messed with 1.6.1, but there is a patch for Cistron RADIUS 1.6.4 for
the mysql authentication/accounting. The Cistron RADIUS source also comes with
the debian/ directory, and the appropriate control/rules files, so it's pretty
easy to build a .deb out of the patched version with only a few modifications.
Check out http://www.miquels.cistron.nl/radius/, they have the tarball for
1.6.4, and the MySQL patch is under the "unofficial cistron-radius patches"
page.
