[Gerard Cany]  
1) distinguishing 33K, 56K users
	It seems that with current Radius implementations you may only distinguish analog (NAS-Port-Type = Async)
	and ISDN users; no distinction is possible between 33K and 56K
2) distinguishing 64K and 128K : no probleme with  Ascend-Maximum-Channels
3) Radius and Unix groups
	It seems that current Radius implementations doesn't have any idea about Unix groups
	We had to patch the Radius source code in order to have Radius deny access to certain groups (groups in which we place users who
	didn't paid their bill :-)
4) for your problem, our solution is :
	- DEFAULT Password = "UNIX", NAS-Port-Type = Async
	to restrict default users to analog access
	- create an entry in Radius users for each ISDN user
   This is a not a very intelligent solution

If anybody has a better idea I would be interested
