We have our pm-2e running with Linux, and I must admit that the
transition (from a Cyclades multi-port serial card) has been pretty
painless. You do NOT need to do anything with radius to get it to
compile under linux UNLESS you're running shadow passwords. If you are,
you have to make sure that radius know what character denotes a shadow,
"*", "+", etc. It's documented at livingistons web site
www.livingston.com, but I can't remember exactly where.
If you're running Linux, you'll want to check out their ISP setup page in
the technical support area -- it gives examples on how to set up a
portmaster for dialin and it just *happens* to assume that you're using a
Linux box..
