I restarted server and ran radtest but still getting access reject packet. anything else I should check? Am I at least doing this the right way using the users file to make a user and see if I can get a access accept message?

You need to restart the server to get it to reread the users file.
Alternatively I believe Alan said HUP would cause the user's file to be
