(RADIATOR) %{Handler:name}

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Mariano -

The AuthBy RADIUS clause actually deals with four seperate packets: the 
request packet, the reply packet, the packet that is sent to the proxy 
and the reply that comes back from the proxy. If you are interested, 
have a look at the code in "Radius/AuthRADIUS.pm".

And yes you can use AddToRequest and StripFromRequest as you describe.

regards

Hugh
