(RADIATOR) radius client library in C?

[Tariq Rashid]

FreBSD and possible the other BSDs come with a radius client library by
default as part of the base system. Its nicely documented and you can start
coding from its man page. (/usr/include/radlib.h, /usr/lib/libradius*)

There is eveb a statically compiled version which i have successfully used
on Linux (debian on kernel 2.6). It can do both authentication and
accounting. search gogole for "juniper libradius linux" and it should be the
first link - web page wasn't working when i tried, it might come back later.
i have a copy if you need it.

Jacob: Thanks for the pointer. I've traced it to what
seems to be a current development home at

http://developer.berlios.de/projects/radiusclient-ng/

It looks like Maxim Sobolev is the current maintainer,
replacing Lars Fenneberg. The current release is 0.4.2, 
and file updates have been made as recently as April. 

It doesn't look like it will work for Windows, which 
is my immediate target OS, but it could work on 
Linux and Solaris. So I'm partly happy, but still 
looking. 

I checked Google for "radius client," but somehow
it didn't occur to me to check for "radiusclient." 
I guess that's why I'm not a librarian.
