Once upon a time Kris shaped the electrons to say...
>Is it possible to send a session time out warning before a radius authenticated user's session will be terminated? It is nice to have such a feature.

First, no HTML on the list!

Second - no. How do you propose doing this? If they are a PPP/SLIP user
- forget it, you can't get them a message. If they are a telnet/rlogin
user you could, in theory, inject text into their stream - but if they are
downloading, using a curses based program, etc, it could just screw things
up. Not a good idea.
