Address already in use but server is not running

I recently had to install debian 6.0 on one of my servers after a hard
drive crash, and while I had freeradius running before, I can't seem to get
it running now.

I ran sudo apt-get install freeradius and hit enter to accept the
additional packages, and I also installed dialup admin with the intention
of getting to it after getting freeradius running, but now I am running
into trouble with starting freeradius.  The install completed without
errors, but running sudo ./freeradius -X produces the following:


Failed binding to authentication address * port 1812: Address already in
use
/etc/freeradius/radiusd.conf[240]: Error binding to port for 0.0.0.0 port
1812


I can post the full contents of the debug dump, but this appears to be the
only point at which an error is encountered.  I am quite sure that there is
not an instance already running, so I don't know what else could be using
the port.  Any ideas?
