Hi All,

I would like to use radius to authenticate our users (using desktop pcs) on our lan, and give them access to internet based on their authentication data. (to give them bandwidth). I am planning it using a pppoe server, and then our users will use a pppoe client (eg. rasppoe) to make the connection. Clients can be linux,w9x,w2k,wxp Is it a good plan? :) If there's a better solution, could You tell me what it is? Which pppoe server is good enough to use for large number of users? (eg. Roaring Pengiuns' RP-PPPoE server?) How can I control their bandwidth?

I could successfully install freeradius wisth myql backend, and I can use this to authenticate our wifi users, so, the basics of freeradius is ok. But this time I have to authenticate lan users with oridnary ethernet network card.

Thx
