Freeradius and biometric devices

[Kenneth Penza]

Alan,

	I was thinking to have the reader on the client side
and send the password and the biometric data to the
freeradius on the server, which in turn checks and
upon the outcome the user is authenticated or not. I
do not know which attribute should i use for the
biometric data.

Regards
Kenneth
