mac based auth with radius problem!

[saurav barik]

Hi,
thanks a lot for the reply.

As you would have seen, i am having the required configuration in my
hostapd.conf file.
Moreover, if this is not supported by the madwifi driver, is it that i can
never use a radius server with madwifi and hostapd, not even for wpa-eap.

thanks again,
saurav
