freeradius not responding on machine specific IPs

[Andy Billington]

Check firewall ports - we had "fun" when FR was listening on the 18s
but our firewall guy did his config using the "traditional" 16s.  Also
have you got your FR client configured so FR server knows to process
requests from that source?
