Subject: [HUMBUG] Next Meeting - 10th May 2003
Date: 6 May 2003 00:00:06 GMT
HUMBUG, the Home Unix Machine Brisbane Users Group, exists to get
fellow Unix users in contact with each other, to introduce people
to Unix and Unix-like operating systems, and to help users in
operating those systems. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Meetings tend to be informal. We socialize, discuss Unix and
computing, solve Unix problems for new and experienced users
alike, and these days have regular talks.
Date: Saturday, 10th May 2003 (every second Saturday)
Time: From three pm till late
Venue: Room S201, Hawken Engineering Building (no. 50)
The University of Queensland, St Lucia Campus
Car Parking is currently unregulated on Saturdays. The
University is serviced by public transport with frequent
buses during University terms. For more information:

Cost: Membership is $15 for a full year, but no one has to join
unless they are going to use club services such as our
network access during meetings.
Food: The eating places (ranging from take away to a la Carte)
at 'The Ville' are usually open until about 10pm Saturday
night. There is also the Pizza Cafe on-campus near the

Subject: Announcing OpenRADIUS 0.9.7 - SQL support
Date: 6 May 2003 00:00:09 GMT

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
Hello,
OpenRADIUS 0.9.7 has just been released. The most important feature of
this release is SQL support.
This is implemented using a Perl module that can query any database
supported by DBI/DBD. The module supports arbitrary SQL statements and
bind variables. Data sets resulting from queries can be returned to
OpenRADIUS as reply A/V pairs, or can be used by the module as check
items for received A/V pairs.
An example schema for MySQL and a configuration- and behaviour file are
included.
See the full changelog at
http://www.openradius.net/download/openradius-0.9.7/CHANGELOG
The source is at
http://www.openradius.net/download/openradius-0.9.7.tar.gz
Kind regards,
Emile van Bergen.
