Wandering slightly off-topic here...
I often find RADIUS is an easier way to setup a highly available
(and perhaps too flexible) AuthN/AuthZ service, but I've never used
PG's RADIUS implementation. I was curious and I took a look at
the documentation...
I can't tell if PG supports querying a secondary RADIUS server?
I don't see how I would do it with the syntax here ...
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/auth-methods.html
Are multiple servers not supported?
