[tac_plus] Re: firewall 0.0.0.0??

Rather unlikely seeing as how a router/switch never yields a 0.0.0.0.
In other words, if it was a bug I would see it on other places and I do
not.  Also, there is no 0.0.0.0 anywhere in my script, and mind that
variable is just a string!  If the problem was in my script, the
variable would be empty, or it would just plain crash, it's impossible
for the script to set 0.0.0.0 as it had to come from somewhere.

The firewall does not send a cmd-arg=<cr>, which was not expected.  That
will be fixed.

i'd lean toward your script.  tacacs gets the ip from the tcp socket.
