Why let your user file get BIG ? We eliminated over 3000 users in it simply
by making the PPP login the default. Now all we have to add to the user file
are special accounts, like terminal accounts, UUCP etc.
radius scans the user file and if it doesn't find the user there it applies
the DEFAULT.
Our user file went from 842k down to 24k ! Makes a BIG difference !
worked for us, your milage may vary !
