  Description     : PHP PEAR AUTH wrapper-classes for the RADIUS PECL. 
                    .
                    This package provides PHP PEAR AUTH wrapper-classes for the RADIUS PECL.
                    There are different Classes for the different authentication methods. 
                    If you are using CHAP-MD5 or MS-CHAP you need also the Crypt_CHAP package. 
                    If you are using MS-CHAP you need also the mhash and mcrypt extension.


php-auth provides Auth/Container/RADIUS.php for RADIUS
authentication support. However, Auth/Container/RADIUS.php
requires Auth/RADIUS.php, which is not included in php-auth.
There is an extra pear package Auth_RADIUS which does the
job for pear.

Therefore, we suggest to create a new package php-auth-radius
from PEAR Auth_RADIUS, basically consisting of Auth/RADIUS.php 
and a dependency to php5-radius. In addition, the new package 
could be recommended by php-auth.
