For someone that claims words are important, you're not listening to 
the people trying to tell you you're using words wrong.

random != dynamic   for example

client != user  would be another example.

The client is not the user. It's the physical device that's 
configured to uses RADIUS for authentication. cilents are defined in 
./clients.conf

The user is the one with an ID and a password. Users are defined in 
./users  (who they are, what their password is, where to go look for 
their information)

And to get to your next question, ./huntgroups can be used to define 
the association between the two (which users can log into which clients)

The docs might not be optimal, but they're offset by an amazing 
supportive and active email list (which I'll trade for docs any day 
really).  That is, if you don't spend all your time claiming the 
application is broken and buggy....


The real question is, presuming you bear with it and get FR to work, 
will you write up and contribute documentation for what you've done 
to help others?
