Altering the RADIUS dictionary files...

[liran tal]

I will appreciate if others can still comment on this subject as I do want
to understand
more thoroughly what's going on but it seems like the manpage for dictionary
explains it
pretty well:

"

The dictionaries in */usr/local/share* SHOULD NOT be edited unless you know
exactly what you are doing. Changing them will most likely break your
RADIUSdeployment.

If you need to add new attributes, please edit the
*/etc/raddb/dictionary*file. It's sole purpose is
to contain site-local defintions that are added by the local administrator.

"
