(RADIATOR) radpwtst does not authenticate

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Alan -

You should run "radiusd" from the command line first so you can see if 
there are any errors:

	perl radiusd -foreground -log_stdout -trace 4 -config_file .....

It may be that you have not installed Radiator correctly, or it may 
simply be that your configuration file is not set up to listen on UDP 
ports 1645/1646 which is what "radpwtst" sends to by default.

If you still have problems please send me a copy of your configuration 
file (no secrets) together with a trace 4 debug from startup as shown 
above.

BTW - the latest version of Radiator is 3.6 (plus patches) so you might 
want to consider upgrading.

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
