	I guess I'm not clear in what I was attempting to accomplish, maybe
subsequently I went about it the wrong way.

	Tech calls in and say that he can't get an appliance working in the field.
I ask him what secret he's using and the IP address of the appliance. I want to
be able to be locally logged onto the radius server and use radtest/radclient/rad????
to be able to query radius asking "If I was IP, and I gave you SECRET, would you
authorize me?". 

	So I want to be on 1.2.3.4, but say I'm on 3.4.5.6 . Right now, If I
say I'm on 3.4.5.6, it still wants the secret for 1.2.3.4 .
