(RADIATOR) Re: PIN code authentication + hijack traffic and force end user to a specific portal to login?

Thu Apr 17 00:07:13 CDT 2008

Hi Hugh
I tried to contact archred with email, but no response yet for a few days,I 
will try again.So you know there are some cases that archred works as access 
controller with radiator to hijack the traffic and redirect to its portal 
login page?
I have another question regarding backup. I know Radiator 's config file can 
be easily copy out for backup.What about the the whole system and database? 
My project now is, we may put the MS SQL server workgroup edition  on the 
same windows 2003 server as Radiator 4.2, Radmin and Radar. Does Radiator 
support asynchronous bidirectional backup ,or synchronous bidirectional 
backup ? Please correct me if I didn't use the correct term for that. Or 
it's not related to radiator at all? Just MS SQL server backup?
Do you have any recommended hardware config for MS SQL server to work with 
Radiator to cater up to 5000 concurrently authentication login? My current 
design is only MS SQL server workgroup edition one CPU, windows 2003 server, 
Radiator 4.2 plus radmin,radar. Do you think it will be any performance 
issue if 5000 concurrent login come in?Or maximu how many will be best 
practice for MS SQL server workgroup edtion with Radiator?
I think there might be some topics in archive of mailling list too,just 
cannot find out.Any tip to search that in the archive? It would be better if 
you have some reference document on the best practice.
thanks
scott
