The first question is "do you want to use the radius server on hostA, or do 
you want to use the ACE server directly?".

If you want to use the radius server on hostA you should use an AuthBy RADIUS 
clause to proxy the requests from hostH to hostA. If on the other hand you 
want to use the ACE API, you should use the AuthBy ACE clause on hostH to 
talk directly to the ACE server on hostA.

The complete Radiator 3.0 reference manual is in the file "doc/ref.html" in 
the distribution.

If you can give me a clear description of your requirements I will be happy 
to help with some suggestions on how to configure Radiator appropriately.

regards

Hugh
