Baki - unless you have some utterly compelling reason to be working on the
Debian distro version, you really should upgrade to at least 1.1.7.
Depending on your schedule, you might even want to look seriously at the
2.0.0 beta.

I'm just wondering why some of the major Linux releases are still shipping
1.1.3.  It's getting ridiculous.  We're about to move to 2.0 ("real soon
now"), and folk like RH, Debian and friends are still distributing a way out
of date 1.x, perpetuating all the usual legacy support headaches for Alan et
al.

Is there anything the freeradius community can do about this?  Can we write
our /Congressmen|Member of Parliament|Dictator|Oligarch/?  Threaten to
scream and scream until we're sick if we don't get our own way?
