I think readability would be the same.  I had expected
radiusd -XXXC to produce more lines of output than
radiusd -XC but it didn't (or at least not any that
I noticed).  Insertion of the word Debug slightly
lengthened the lines but even without that the lines
still would get wrapped by Yahoo's web mail.

YOU saw that and I thank you.  I would not have known
to look for that.  The reason follows below.

Because I didn't guess that radiusd.conf had such a
change between version 2.0.5-8.3 in OpenSuse 11.0, and
version 2.1.9-1.7 in OpenSuse 11.3.

Thank you for pointing that out.
YOU knew about the change and I thank you.
I did not know about the change.

I understand.  I thank you again.

Please note that my initial posting to this discussion
asked what changed between those two versions to
break the use of SQL, and here you have answered.
I thank you for answering.  I think you could have
answered directly that radiusd.conf changed and users
need to look at it.

Yours sincerely,
Norman Diamond
