any one know a good aaa or radius server software
for linux ?   are there any opensource software for this?
I found radius-980618.tar.gz a while ago somewhere on the net
there's also cistron radius server
That crusty old radiusd is lacking a number of features.. He'll most likely want PAM support, maybe MySQL and maybe even LDAP support. Cistron does PAM out of the box, and there are patches for MySQL and LDAP too.

Take a look at FreeRADIUS from www.freeradius.org. Looks like it supports (out of the box) PAM, MySQL, PostgreSQL, LDAP, Oracle, EAP/MD5 and EAP/TLS. That last one is incredibly useful if you plan to deploy WinXP wireless clients that you want to authenticate using x.509 digital certs.

For me, I just setup a RADIUS server to use along with my Apple AirPort base station. Right now, the AirPort's RADIUS support is only for checking MAC addresses to make a go/no-go decision on whether to permit the wireless device to associate. I'm hoping they implement something like EAP or even LEAP in a future firmware release. LEAP looks somewhat likely even - the client side of AirPort already supports it for Mac users connecting to Cisco APs running LEAP.
