FreeRadius not responding to a remote machine

[Shan T]

Hi,

I am trying to setup freeradius server (ver 1.0.5). I have installed
the server and tested it successfully from the local machine using
RADCLIENT utility.

But I am not able to connect to the freeradius from a remote machine
runs on Linux. I have configured the remote machine in the
clients.conf file and ran the server on debug mode. But the server is
not showing any trace of getting a connection from the server. I even
tried to connnect to the server from a windows XP machine using a
utility called NTRadPing. But it also behaves the same way.

Here are the trace from my Server and the Client consoles. Can anyone
please suggest a solution?
