You can do pretty much everything you describe above with the standard 
configuration file, however if you use a hook that's fine too.

If you want to add attributes in a PostAuthHook, you would do this:

sub
{
    my $p = ${$_[0]};
    my $rp = ${$_[1]};
    my $result = ${$_[2]};
 
    if ($result == $main::ACCEPT)
    {
        $rp->add_attr('Service-Type', 'Framed-User');
        $rp->add_attr('Framed-Protocol', 'PPP');
    }
    return;
}

BTW - you should be using the standard dictionary file supplied with Radiator 
(the file called 'dictionary' in the distribution). The attributes shown 
above must be defined in the dictionary (which is just a text file).

There are also some example hooks in the file called "goodies/hooks.txt" in 
the Radiator distribution.
