  Your first post had the server doing authentication against
/etc/passwd, and the test user wasn't listed there.

  No.  There is a "shared secret" between the RADIUS server and the
RADIUS client.  The user also has a password, but this password has
nothing to do with the shared secret.

  Do as the message suggests.
