Cant Start Radius Server MAC OSX (snow leopard)

sometimes its not permissions, but the code reading the configurations
files encounters an error - eg when reading radiusd.conf - which pulls
in all the files, and the error lies there..

exactly....

yes.....

> user1          Cleartext-Password := “password”
> Service-Type = NAS-Prompt-User,
> cisco-avpair = “webvpn:user-vpn-group=SLRgroup1”

...and then you saw the errors in the debug log regarding this entry - 
this entry is wrong (or the server cannot read it due to incorrect.

maybe

user1          Cleartext-Password := “password”
Service-Type = "NAS-Prompt-User",
cisco-avpair = “webvpn:user-vpn-group=SLRgroup1”

?
