Alan,

    What I want to do is to a user has more then one
biometric identity, each linked to a profile.  
    The application reads and processes the biometric
identity in form of a hash or large number. Then I
forward this to radius for authentication, this will
guarantee that user bob with that particular biometric
id, is actually allowed to logon for the given
application. 
     The idea is to have a profile based system, in
which the user is authenticated by profile name and
biometric identity. 

Regards
Kenneth
