  NO.  Do NOT SET THAT.  It's NOT NECESSARY.

  That point has been repeated again and again on this list.

no doubt, however it is interesting that many people come to a point where they make such a setting, don't you find. If you could clarify why that is and fix it you wouldn't have to shout in mailing lists.

I have just verified it is not necessary by commenting it out, thanks.

I think you're saying at http://deployingradius.com/documents/configuration/auth_type.html that a default auth-type is not necessary and should not be set. Is that so ? In which case having

DEFAULT Auth-Type = System

in the users file in the FreeRADIUS tarball helps to get us off on the wrong foot :-)
