Hi Ahmed and asterisk friends,
So asterisk cannot contact the radius server.
The radiusclient __can__ contact the radius server.
Check in the asterisk log files why asterisk cannot contact the radius
server! Be also aware of the user, who is running the daemons. This user
might need read access to certain configuration files.
