I've never used NTRadping, but are you sure that it's trying to communicate over the correct port #? Radius used to use 1645 & 1646 (IIRC), but in a later version of the RFC switched it to 1812 & 1813. I know that Microsloth's radius server punts on the issue and listens on both ports, while FR (by default, again, IIRC) will only listen on 1812/13. It's at least possible that NTRadping might be trying to communicate over 1645 by default. Failing that, I'd sniff the traffic between the two and see what's going where.
