Re: (ASCEND) In Defense Of Ascend...
I use commercial software for no reason other than I am a one man shop and
should I get hit by the peverbial BUS, someone will have to come in behind
me and keep things going. We do not have a great number of competent
technicians so we chose to go with an NT based RADIUS server. It works
well and provides some flexibility that the other options do not.

I wonder where Ascend get there data. The activity on the list suggests a
great number of customers using the free options.
