I've installed it and looked on the disk, all the config files are
freeradius.

Does this include any modules that are written for freeradius?
I'd think running external scripts is OK as these are not compiled against
or linked to the freeradius code, but what about modules? Don't these
require compilation, would this mean that if you write modules for
freeradius and sell the solution you need to provide the source for the
modules?
