Since the USR code is based on Livingston ComOS, I would have assumed
their RADIUS/Accounting was also. I know that the first releases of
Livingston RADIUS *did not* include the authenticator in authentication
packets (accounting was still not done at that time), so we had some
problems when they were using Ascend's RADIUS daemon which required
it.

I'll check with our RADIUS guru to see if this is a known issue.
