We have opted to use the Shiva Access Manager (Ooops! the "S" word) for NT 
to provide RADIUS support.  I run two TNTs supporting over 3,000 users.  
The Access Manager supports all Ascend attributes and has a lot of nice 
features including Primary and Secondary server configurations and can 
write LOG information to an ODBC database.  We use NT to replicate user 
information to the secondary server.  User accounts are managed on the 
primary server only.  Only thing is that Shiva Access Manager is not free 
but it is not that expensive either.

IEA's RadiusNT is $495 according to their website. I have considered buying 
it on a number of occassions, because Ascend in their infinite wisdom only 
allows you to put Access_Control on one server. You can put RadiusNT on two 
servers making the system 
more fault tolerant. Having a reliable system is one of the main concerns 
of most ISP's. This should be a no brainer for Ascend to figure out.

I believe IEA's RadiusNT is free - it is the commercial Emerald server they 
charge for.
Lucent's is free - with the caveat that you need to own at least one Lucent 
PortMaster product to use it.  But if you do you can use it with anything.
