Re: (ASCEND) user auth

* Good article. Not sure it will help Phil though ... I think he told me he was
using a Max 6000 series RAS. Anyway that other "radif" part and such was

without debug on and radif. It just gives the radauth line ;-)

It is good to hear from other UNETE people on this Ascend List. 

Hola from Unete Miami Florida (IFXCORP) !
