The eaist way is as per what I e-mailed to you.

http://lists.freeradius.org/mailman/htdig/freeradius-users/2009-November/msg00001.html

This means you only need to create groups in your LDAP directory.  It also
means you don't need to extend the LDAP Schema to do this.

And use the Postauth_users & Host Groups file to determine which server you
are allowed to login from.

I have yet to find a better or easier way to do things.

Thanks

Peter
