The 'client' refuses to use Linux to share there media ftp server because of some of there own reasons. They insist to stick on IIS.
So again I am asking for help , is there any way IIS can get authentication from freeradius server. there is a utility called RADIIS which does the job, but its expensive (400$) . any other workaround ?
I really don't see the problem with that. If they expect the IIS solution to be cheap and work out-of-the-box, then their expectations need serious adjustments. My advice to you is to not try to plaster over the facts. You'll only end up with the blame for all the problems *their choice* resulted in. USD 400 cannot be expensive in Microsoft-land. It's about 2 client licenses for a Windows Small Business Server. If you run a business based entirely on Microsoft software, your licensing fees alone will probably be around USD 1000 *per employee* just to get a basic setup (server, desktop-OS, office suite). If they are unhappy with the costs, then there are alternatives. If they don't want the alternatives, then ask in some Microsoft forum instead. Bjørn
