Config file varable substitution.

[Guy Fraser]

This message took a long time to show up.

I have satisfactorily designed a PHP4 program that recursively 
reads all the information from radiusd.conf and all included 
files.

I can now create an array with any necessary information 
including the name of the file and associated line number.
The only trick I have yet to do is track the number of lines 
in a multi line assignment, but that should only take a few 
minutes.

Now I just need to know the answers to my previous post to 
finish the collection function.

Monday I will start a function to read the users file.

Have a great weekend.
