Installing RADIUS Library for PHP

Overview:
This package is based on the libradius of FreeBSD. This PECL adds full support for Radius Authentication (» RFC 2865) and Radius Accounting (» RFC 2866). This package is available for Unix (tested on FreeBSD and Linux) and for Windows.
The libradius library implements the client side of the Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS).  RADIUS, defined in RFCs 2865 and 2866, allows clients to perform authentication and accounting by means of network requests to remote servers.
