Strange problem regarding PPTP and FreeRADIUS

[Ali Majdzadeh]

Phil,
Hi
Yes, you are right. radius.so breaks when I insert radius_deadtime option in
radiusclient.conf, it seems that what I have used to configure the previous
radiusclient is not compatible with this new version. By the way, I use
pppd-2.4.5. Thanks a lot.

Warm Regards
