 "Did you give a *full* description of what you wanted to do, as requested
in http://wiki.freeradius.org/list-help"

Truncated -X output, and no config initially. I got to the mailing list by
landing on https://freeradius.org/support/ from Google, then going to
http://lists.freeradius.org/mailman/listinfo/freeradius-users. I saw no
mention of this page. Someone should include this link to that page there.

"Or was it "I did stuff and it didn't work"."

I can't say it was that bad. I guess with the expertise disparity it looks
that way.

"We're not mind readers."

I never said this. My lack of details shouldn't imply that.

"I'm not going to read random diffs (or whatever that is).  You need to
describe what you did using plain English."

I tried that, and that didn't work. I've provided an exact output of every
command I've done, and now that's not acceptable. The pastebin isn't a
diff, it's my rough doc to recreate this if I need to in the future.

"Right now, you're going "meh, I'm not going to describe things.  I'm just
going to dump stuff on Alan, and ask him to figure it out"."

This is getting ridiculous. You could have said, "Please refer to X. Once
you've done that, we can proceed". Instead, you're focusing on being rude
and talking down to me.

If someone else here wants to help, I'll take it from them. Perhaps someone
else on here is a "mind reader". You're off the hook.
