New Server Build

Hello All, I am attempting to build a new and different FR server than I currently use. The new one is running the latest FR release and MySql. I am also running the dialup admin software. Before I attach a bunch of logs and eat up bandwidth, I want to make sure that I am testing correctly. When I run the radtest utility that comes with FR, I get an access-reject, even though the user is in the radius database. Running FR with the -X parameter, it does appear to be check the database. Am I testing correctly for this type of FR & MySQL setup? Thanks in advance, Scott
