Thank you.  I wouldn't have pushed so hard, until I relized just how
long ago this change was made.  You'll be better off in the long run
on port 1812 anyway, most next generation equipment will ship with
that as the default.

If you need assistance in migrating your current Ascend/Livingston
equipment I've dealt with my fair share of it and can say that the
easiest way is to do the ``run 2 copies of radiusd, one on each
port'' then go around and reset all your RAS equipment.  The other
way is to install a proxy server on 1645 that forwards to 1812,
and/or use ipfw and divert sockets.

The Livingstons are easy, just wack the global config value and do
a save all.  The Ascend stuff is a bit more brain dead, you usually
have to reboot it after changing it.  If you use the dual port method
you can wait until the next natural reboot due to some other problem,
which isn't usually two long for a MAX or TNT :-).
