Thanks for the clarification.

Radiator should work correctly in the manner you describe, but if you send me 
a trace 4 debug from Radiator together with your configuration file (no 
secrets), I will be happy to take a look.

Here is part of the configuration that you will need:

# define Client clauses

<Client your.acs.box>
	Secret somesecret
	.....
</Client>

<Client localhost>
	Secret mysecret
	DupInterval 0
	.....
</Client>

# define AuthBy clauses

<AuthBy FILE>
	Identifier CheckFile
	Filename %D/users
	.....
</AuthBy>

# define Realm(s) or Handler(s)

<Realm>
	AuthBy CheckFile
	......
</Realm>
