I don't think Radiator can change the enable passwd/secret on your
routers, but you can setup users with Service-Type = Administrative-User,
which will give them enable access when they telnet/ssh in and are
authenticated.  The benefit to this is you can give each person their own
passwd and not have to change "the enable secret" when someone needs to
have their access revoked.
