Ok, so AFAIUI it would be better to dump the original db to a file and populate a server which is set up according to the freeradius schema. If possible of course (but that's a MySQL issue and beyond the scope of this list of course)
If the DB is MySQL 5, you *may* be able to create a view. Otherwise, you may have to do what we did for a while. We wrote a perl script to translate from one schema to the other and ran it every 10 minutes. Users were told to wait 10 mins before trying to login after an account change (reactivation, password update, etc).
I'm thinking of something similar. Fortunately running the script once a day is ok. It's MySQL-4 btw.
