Please see these files in your Radiator distribution:

goodies/CoovaAP.txt

Coova should be quite straight forward. Here's a quote from CoovaAP.txt:

   The Radiator configuration is very simple. CoovaAP has no special
   authentication requirements. It does CHAP authentication. We used
   the goodies/simple.cfg like this:
   perl radiusd -config goodies/simple.cfg


There is also related information in goodies/chilli*

However, note the following about goodies/chilli* files mentioned in
chillispot.txt:

   The ChilliSpot project has been abandoned and taken over by
   the CoovaChilli project at http://coova.org

   This documentation is retained for historical reasons since
   configuration of CoovaChilli is similar.

I think Coova should be configured as any other Radius client. The above
files in goodies should get you started.

Thanks,
