Has any one used the RADIUS server that comes with Windows 2000 Server? I have a small network 15+ switches, and a router. I want to increase security a little and have user name and password, but I can't justify the money for the Cisco server. Im just looking for any thoughts on the matter.
Thank You
The MS IAS Radius server runs fine with our routers and switches, you shouldn't have any issues.
Some time ago I used MS IAS to authenticate clients on a VPN RAS. I don´t have problems. It´s work fine. But if you want more features then autentications, like shell authorization and command account, try use some tacacs freeware like tacacs+. Freshmeat have some good projects.
