I am interested with John's patches.
Where are they available ?
I am also interested with Alexander Coulter patches you talked about in
a post dated 28 Jan 2010 17:36:46 +0100 regarding ldap redundancy &
Ldap-Group checkItem in user file (message
4B61BD1E.1090005 at deployingradius.com)

As you talked about integration of those patches in 2.2.0, How can I
access freeradius 2.2.x cvs ?
I tried cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs at cvs.freeradius.org:/source checkout
radiusd, but the version retrieved there seems to be 2.0.6 ...
