We have our RADIUS server on a separate machine entirely from our text users, so I'm not sure if anything we come up with will be easily integratable back into CSuite, but I think if we do it the usual CSuite way (by putting spoolfiles into, say, $CS_ROOT/private/ppp and NFS-mounting that on the RADIUS server), it should be doable.
