Right now, Lucent RABU has their next version of radius ( 2.1 ) in beta
testing. It will support 'proxy radius' or 'roaming' as it is sometimes
called. It isn't available yet, so if you need proxy radius support
right now, you may want to look into Merit's Basic AAA server. You can
read more about it at:

http://www.merit.edu/aaa

Merit has been doing 'proxy radius' longer than anyone else that I know
of. ( If I'm wrong, please correct me... ) Their proxy support is solid,
and their server can handle mutliple vendor environments ( USR | Ascend |
Livingston ) very well. The basic version is free, and will run on just
about any unix platform.
