I mean, since its all based on FreeBSD, wouldn't it be easy to just include the option for an internal radius-server?

Maybe it just doesn't matter, might be easy to install a external one yourself, but I just dont trust my OpenBSD webserver as much as the router itself since its running webserver and php and ssh and stuff, while m0n0wall just doesn't have ANY way to break in from the WAN.

Maybe its not even technically possible since it seems to all run in php, I dont know, thats why I ask Smiley

I dare say that it is an option with PFsense.  Not really within the scope of the Monowall project though.

It's technically possible, but it would mean another interface to write to work with it, more memory used to run it, higher system specs, etc. I'm very happy with an external radius server, but it does have a built in user manager, though really basic.

Maybe virtualisation like Openvz is an idea?
Put your webserver system in one vm and a radius server in another vm.

This way you have 2 (or more if you want) isolated systems on one server.
