New to List - First Time Set-up

Hello List, I have been reading about freeradius and would like to set it up in my sandbox environment for testing. Can you point me to the right direction on how to go about setting this service up. Also can you give me a brief list down of the items I will need on my server. At the moment I have been working with Fedora Core 3 running as my Samba-LDAP server, on my sandbox environment. Thanks for your help --mark
