a LOT of people on this list use policies with authorization. be
that a trivial one such as 'user can only log in from certain NAS' 
going up to classes of users pulled from LDAP or SQL - and thus
returning different attributes - eg different VLANs
in a lot of cases the same source is used, in other cases, PERL
or SQL is used for check items
