rpmbuld errors 2.0.1

[Joe Vieira]

you'll need to either rename everything in the spec file to be 
"freeradius-server"
or just open the tar.gz rename the directory INSIDE IT (which is also 
freeradius-server) to freeradius-2.0.1... then zip it all back up and 
run your spec again and it will work.
