I guess I should add what I'm doing with it.  I'm using it to hand out IP 
addresses to PPPoA ADSL connections from a mysql database.  We have about 
30,000 DSL modems that get a dynamic IP out of a pool and about 8,000 that 
get a static IP.  We get about 1-2 radius requests per second.

I'll document it one of these days and then post it to the list.  I just 
haven't had time yet to do it.
