hi Alan,

I now fixed that dictonary issue. I followed the guide lines from here http://wiki.freeradius.org/PopTop to see if pptp and radius works. I am getting this error :
/var/log/message

Mar 27 15:11:58 test45 pptpd[2121]: CTRL: PTY read or GRE write failed (pty,gre)=(6,7)

And in /var/log/radius/radius.log -- i get nothing

I must be doing something wrong.

 What is unclear about that message?

 It looks like you edited the dictionary file, and broke it.  Don't do
that.

 You don't edit the dictionaries.  All of the configuration is done in
FreeRADIUS.
