PAM+RADIUS Attribute Value Pairs

Hello All:

	I'm using PAM as a interface to a RADIUS server. I managed to get the 
authentication part working, but I need to get authorization to work too. I 
know that the pam_radius_auth.so doesn't support authorization, so I'm trying 
to hack it.
	My main problem is how to pass ANY token from the RADIUS reply in the 
talk_radius() function. What functions in the framework can be used for 
this ? I have to look at the attribute-value pairs in the AUTH_OK response 
from the RADIUS server and then set some attribute. I tried to use the 
pam_set_data/pam_get_data functions, but they won't work if called from an 
application.
	Any ideas are welcome. Thank you.
