NAS list update without restarting radius server.

[Tuc at T-B-O-H.NET]

Hi Ivan,

	Thanks for the reply. I think its starting to sink in. :)
I have to test out how we'll do a bit of it, but I think I get the
jist of it. I don't see how any of the netmask, require_message_authenticator
or virtual_server fit into it... But since I wasn't using it anyway, I
won't push my luck. ;) (Unless for netmask your saying the nasname
could be 192.168.3.0/24)

		Thanks, Tuc
