I never did this, but I think the above line should read

AuthByPolicy ContinueWhileIgnore

In fact, I guess that if your other radius server is actually working, 
this server would be trying the <AuthBy FILE> after the <AuthBy RADIUS> 
allways (since it wasn't ignored and that is the condition to stop the 
AuthByPolicy).
