I've managed to setup pptp to use Radius authentication - making it much easier to manage users in an sql database than the default password file. However, ideally I'd like to be able to get the status of these users and disconnect/manage them as Radius allows - is this possible? If so, could you elaborate and point me in the right direction?

All help is much appreciated!

Edit I am personally using Debian and the standard aptitude packages for pptp and FreeRADIUS.
