[Koha] Questions: RADIUS authentication

[Dianne Hall]

It is possible to use RADIUS authentication with Koha.  My colleague Chris Hyde at the East Brunswick Public Library has successfully tested it using Koha running on Ubuntu.    Chris has some directions for how to set up the connection between the RADIUS server and Koha.  I will send a link to those directions as soon as I find out the best place to post them.

Able?  Yes.  Currently ready to do it out-of-the-box with no
customisation or configuration?  I don't think Radius auth is there
(would need something in the style of the LDAP module but for Radius
I think) and I'm not sure about soundex OTTOMH.

Hope that helps,
