For starters, radacct is for accounting data, not auth credentials.  You
want the radcheck table.

You need to configure the sql module (probably in sql.conf) and then
call that in the authorize section.

1.0.5 is old.  Since this is a new setup, you should be using 1.1.4.

Send debug output so we can see what is happening when you try to auth.
