[RADIATOR] TACACS authorization without authentication

Hello Vangelis -

Ok - I wonder if you could do two things for me?

1. send me a few trace 5 (five) debugs showing the hex packet dumps of a few of these requests?

2. consider whether adding some code to ServerTACACSPLUS to optionally send a RADIUS Authorize-Only request will meet your needs?

In both cases we will need some assistance to test and debug whatever we come up with.

regards

Hugh
