Not to be too hard on Dale, but I don't imagine he knows what features
Livingston will be supporting or implementing, since we're still
implementing them 8-)

There *will* be a RADIUS NT version available from Livingston. Yeah, I
know you've heard this all before, but I can vouch for it actually
happening now. We've got it running in house, and it appears to be
pretty solid from what I see.

Minimal functionality will be equivalent to that for unix.

We will keep you (and MZ 8-) posted. Be on the lookout for a call to
Beta coming soon.

My opinions, of course, are my own, unless they were given to me by my
