>Description:

	RADIUS was originally coded to use ports 1645 (radius) and
	1646 (radacct), but RFC's 2138 and 2139 define new ports
	for RADIUS and RADIUS accounting, namely 1812 and 1813
	respectively.  FreeBSD 2.2.6 uses the old radacct port, but
	the new radius port, which is a bit silly.  At least if
	something is going to change, can the change be made
	consistent?

>How-To-Repeat:

	Install new radius server on freebsd 2.2.6 box and enjoy :-(

>Fix:
	
	Change radacct in /etc/services to use port 1813 (as defined
	in RFC 2139) instead of port 1646.  A note somewhere in the
	installation instructions might also be nice.
