Jerry,
I hate to be a pain but what you have implemented atm is my next task
with freeradius.

Would you mind linking any howtos you use, thanks.

Also how do u get freeradius to find a users group then report it back
to the cisco / ap so it can decide what vlan the client belongs on.

Many thanks in advance.
