An extract from the history file is attached

Revision 2.18.2 (7/6/01) Minor fixes, EAP proxy support

Added support for proxying of EAP packets. Requests containing
EAP-Message and Message-Authenticator are correctly handled and
Message-Authenticator is correctly recomputed with the Radius secret
for the next hop.

More testing with Freeside 1.3.0. OK.

In AuthBy RADMIN, LogQuery now will not be run if it defined to the
empty string. The old string interpolation has been removed, so perl
variables will not now be interpolated into LogQuery.

Fixed a problem with DHCP address allocation where multiple DNS server
addresses would cause a crash.

Configuration file flags now recognise '0' and 'no' to turn flags
off. Anything else (including empty string) turns a flag on.

Changes to default logger configuration so that LogFile and Trace in
the configuration file have immediate effect on the logger.

Added Extreme VSA's to dictionary.

BaseDN in LDAP2 can now have special characters, which can be used to
improve performance of LDAP searches (see the reference manual for
more information about how). Contributed by Neale Banks
(neale at lowendale.com.au).

goodies/ad-ldap.cfg was accidentally left out of the
distribution. Added.

radpwtst now supports hex escapes etc in attr-value arguments, eg:
radpwtst -noacct "EAP-Message=\x11\x12\x13\x14"

Added -raw flag to radpwtst to allow the raw packet data to be passed
as space separated hex: ./radpwtst -noacct -noauth -raw "01 02 03 04
05 06"

radpwtst now searches for a dictionary, starting with ./dictionary and
/usr/local/etc/raddb/dictionary

Added rpm build spec in Radiator.spec.

AuthBy SYSTEM with UseGetspnamf had problems with expiry dates of -1
on some systems.

Provide RPM packages

Fix a problem with identifiers in AuthBy RADIUS where 2 AuthBy RADIUS
proxying to the same host/port could get occasional identifier
collisions.

Removed interpolation of Perl variables in SearchFilter in AuthBy
LDAP*, as promised previously.

Added support for MS CHAP V2, and the MS-CHAP2-Success reply attribute
as per draft-ietf-pppext-mschap-v2-00.txt and RFC 2548.

In AddressAllocatorSQL, can now specify address ranges in CIDR form,
eg 192.1.1.0/24

Fixed a problem with AddressAllocatorSQL where recovery of a failed
SQL database could cause SQL syntax errors.

Improvements to AuthBy PAM to allow service-specific error messages to
be logged, and different password prompts to be recognised.

Testing with Encotone TeleID and AuthBy PAM. This is a very
interesting Token based authentication system. Works fine. See sample
teleid.cfg and PAM service definition file in goodies.

Added GroupList check item, which succeeds if the user is in any of
the list of space separated group names.

Added OSC attributes to dictionary for Uid, Gid etc, also added
UsePamEnv to AuthBy PAM. Now you can turn PAM env variables into
Radius reply attributes and therefore do remote PAM login
authentication via Radius.

Disabled perl variable interpolation in AuthLogSQL
