My opinion may be slightly biased, but Radiator is by far the best radius 
server out there.

You can certainly proxy to an ACE/Server, but you may be interested to know 
that the next version of Radiator includes direct authentication against the 
ACE/Server API, so there will be no need to proxy.

I am not sure exactly what you mean by "Network clients", however if you mean 
a NAS or similar, there are a variety of ways to differentiate between them.

Here is one example:

# define Clients

<Client n.n.n.n>
	Identifier ClientOne
	Secret .....
	.....
</Client>

<Client m.m.m.m>
	Identifier ClientTwo
	Secret .....
	.....
</Client>

# define Handlers

<Handler Client-Identifier = ClientOne>
	.....
</Handler>

<Handler Client-Identifier = ClientTwo>
	.....
</Handler>

There are *many* other options. 

If you give me a few more details I will be happy to assist.

regards

Hugh
