Other RADIUS Servers
There are several available RADIUS servers:
- Cistron RADIUS
Written by Miquel van Smoorenburg, this server has become widely used in the free-software community. It is completely constructed from the original Livingston source. http://www.radius.cistron.nl
- GNU-radius
This server is—you guessed it!—another Cistron server-based RADIUS implementation, although unlike the other variants a lot of the code has been rewritten. The server has a rewrite configuration file that is very convenient.

This server is a variant of the Cistron server. It includes such added features as support for the MySQL database and a front end in interactive HTML. http://radius.innercite.com
- Navis Access
Lucent’s server is an extremely flexible, expandable, and scalable RADIUS server—but it is a commercial product.

- PerlRADIUS
This is an effort to write a RADIUS implementation in Perl. This effort seems to be another “me-too” effort: that is, the developers are writing the code merely to say they have written the code.

- Radiator
Another RADIUS server, this is written in Perl and is designed for use in smaller implementations. ...
