I never did get it working myself.
Jared went some way to getting things debugged, then I guess he got bogged
down. I did a tcpdump and all that, there was a packet coming back, but I
never got so far as reading hex dumps myself...
I have implemented a separate radius check by a cron job which checks if
the radius process is running and will restart it if it is down. Then I
just ping the machine using sysmon.
I think somewhere the radius test is either not getting packets it can
understand back, or that the parsing on the packets has changed since the
version which works.
Jared?
