Tool
The eDirectory Radiazer is a simple command-line tool written in C#.NET (2.0) that allows an administrator to manage radius attributes for all the users in an eDirectory group or all users associated with a specific profile. It allows for easy association, updating, and removal of radius attributes based on a standard radius profile. It also includes testing, logging, and basic diagnostic capabilities.
I developed this program to solve an internal problem -- we were beginning to roll out 802.1X authentication for entire sites, and needed a simple way to make sure that all users received the latest version of our radius profile. The code is conservative -- it will exit with a descriptive error at the first sign of trouble. However, it is designed for mass deployments.
The tool does have one major limitation -- it uses the .NET DirectoryEntry object, and so only supports standard LDAP connections (i.e. you would run this on a server close to your LDAP server). In the future I will switch to using Novell's LDAP libraries for C# to route around this issue.
Please let me know if you find this utility useful. Detailed instructions can be found in the readme.txt or the source code (included with the binary).

Put the users in a group and then run the tool against that particular group. That should allow you to do what you want.
