Please find, for review, the debconf templates and control file for radiusd-livingston. I adopted all of the comments from Christian and Justin and am resubmitting this RFR just in case someone else wants to take a look. This review has only a few more days left and is scheduled to end May 20, 2007. Thanks, Kevin -- Kevin Coyner GnuPG key: 1024D/8CE11941

Description: Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) server
RADIUS is an AAA (authentication, authorization and accounting) protocol for
managing client access to network services, and is described by RFCs 2865 to
2869. This version of the RADIUS server is from Lucent Technologies Inc.,
formerly known as Livingston Enterprises Inc.
.
Some ISPs (commonly modem, DSL, or wireless 802.11 services) require you to
enter a username and password in order to connect to the Internet. Before
access to the network is granted, this information is passed to a Network
Access Server (NAS) device over the link-layer protocol and then to a RADIUS
server over the RADIUS protocol. The RADIUS server checks that the
information is correct using authentication schemes like PAP, CHAP or EAP. If
accepted, the server will then authorize access to the ISP's system and
select an IP address, L2TP parameters, etc.
.
RADIUS is also commonly used for accounting purposes so that the users can be
billed accordingly.
