That's ancient. You should upgrade to at least 2.2.10. Preferably v3.

radiusd.conf:

    $INCLUDE local.conf

local.conf:

    local {
      hostname = '...'
    }

wherever:

    if (${local.hostname} == "server1") {
      ...

Then update local.conf to be different on each server.

It works in v3. I *think* it's OK in v2 as well, but nobody here really
cares about v2 any more, it's obsolete.
