  Please go back and read what I wrote in my first response.

  The names are IRRELEVANT.  The dictionaries matter only to the
RADIUS server and it's configuration files.  I could rename all of the
attributes & valuess to random words from the dictionary, and it would
make *no* difference to the clients.

  Many, many, attributes and values in FreeRADIUS have slight
differences from the RFC's.  Many implementation decisions in
FreeRADIUS do not follow the RFC's, either.

  On a positive note, it looks like FreeRADIUS will be referenced in
an upcoming RFC.  Some decisions made by Raghu a while back which
didn't follow the RFC's ended up being better than the RFC suggestions.
