Some work seems to be done by Dale Cook <cdm () hyperk com> of SCIENTECH to
solve these issues, see

The work you're referring to involves forwarding requests between RADIUS
servers using public key encryption. It's definitely an antidote for the
problem of naieve implementations forwarding raw, insecure RADIUS protocol
messages across the Internet, but doesn't resolve the problem at the
NAS->AAAS level.
