Please can you explain why you think it is obsolete ?
It addresses the configuration in single-file format rather than the distributed file format that the current packaging (for Debian at least) uses.
By the way, since I wrote this page, I have switched to 2.1.8 without pb.
Arg! Were you able to continue using the same configuration, or did it require a full rebuild? I moved from a rather ancient Gentoo server that I believe was using an 1.x version to Debian Lenny 2.0.4, then upgraded to the 2.1.8 backport, and I can't get it to parse DOMAIN//user properly - it ignores the separator and comes up with a null "realm". Curiously, it later displays the username as DOMAIN/name. The current Debian packaging also requres that the mschap module file be edited, and that a sites-available file be linked to sites-enabled. Thanks for the reply. I think it's always harder to maintain/upgrade an existing configuration moved to a new platform than to build one from scratch.
