  Next time include me in the conversation.  I’ll pull rank as the resident RADIUS expert.  I’ve written multiple RADIUS standards on how to do things “the RADIUS way”.

  And putting *authorization* data into an *accounting* packet is stupid.  It means they don’t understand how RADIUS works.  And worse, they don’t care.
