client configuration via postgres in version 1.0.1

[Joel Bjerk]

I managed to get freeradius to use the nas table (from postgres) but I
had to load the SQL module from the 'authorize' section of radiusd.conf.
What I would like to do is load the SQL module for the reading of the
nas table only.  Is this possible?
