(RADIATOR) 32bit attributes?

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Tariq -

I suspect what they mean is the actual attribute number itself which  
is limited to 8 bits by the RFC's.

There are however many vendor-specifics that use larger attribute  
numbers.

See the code in "Radius/Radius.pm" for details.

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
