  As an option, what we do is forward via NAT all radius requests to the 
internal box that runs our freeside database, which also runs our Cistron 
Radius server.  In our case, it really *isn't* available from the outside.  Not 
a nitpick, just an example of a situation where this could be a viable 
alternative.
