RADIUS QUESTIONS BELONG ON PORTMASTER-RADIUS, NOT PORTMASTER-USERS!

Once upon a time Abdul-Jalil Kanaan shaped the electrons to say...
>I feel bad to keep asking question, I really prefer if I can find a
>documantation about RADIUS 2.0.1. The Web Page is not updated yet, it
>still for RADIUS 2.0. Any Ideas? (other than the Release Note)

What else is there? The manual covers 2.0 pretty much, and the Release
Notes cover the additions in 2.0.1.

>My other question is that I am trying to use the Crypt-Password in
>RADIUS 2.0.1. However, I could not find any hints or explanation. I want
>to know how it works, and how I encript the password.

You need to do that yourself. It was designed for people to be able to
take the encrypted passwords out of the /etc/passwd file and plop them
into the RADIUS users file. If you want to encrypt passwords yourself,
you'll need to write/find a Perl script or the like that runs them
through crypt. I've written such things in the past, but I don't have
them anymore.

Now, take RADIUS issues to portmaster-radius please.
