I cannot advice you about steps you might have missed, probably none. To my 
experience, the documentation is not sufficient.

I can tell you that freeradius can be run in debug mode: radiusd -X Do this 
and have a close look to the output.

If you cannot find any attempt to connect to the freeradius server you need 
to have a close look to the asterisk log files as well. Figure out what is 
going wrong. There should be some clue.

I don't understand the grant access settings. Figure out the user which is 
running asterisk and set the setting appropriately! I remember that I 
needed the following access setting:

-rw-r-----  1 root  asterisk  /usr/local/etc/radiusclient-ng/servers

So read access for asterisk to the servers file. This was not documented at 
all, but somehow logical, if you figured it out.
