Thanks Dusty, i know you were just kidding with me and that's cool :) I'm
just having a bad day hehe. So what i would have to do is set up freeradius
0.9.3 on a different system and then upgrade it as a test and if everything
goes well i should do it on my production system?

I was just giving you a hard time. Its a little longer of a process, but
it will definately save you a lot of time and more importantly a lot of
stress if you do run into issues.
BTW - I am in the process of replacing all our radius servers here too.
So far, I've had no issues with configurations moving between .9 or .93
and 1.0.5. My setup is pretty simple here though.
Good Luck with the upgrade.
