Hello Michael.
Before Radiator can be run as a service, you should test that the command line
entered into the registry will run Radiator properly. You should test this by
changing to, say the root directory, then issuing the complete command line and
seeing if it works, eg:
c:
cd \
c:\perl\bin\perl.exe c:\radiator\radiusd -config_file whatever .....
ONly if Radiator starts and runs properly like that, can you expect it to run
as a service.
Looking at your config file, I suspect that these lines will cause you
problems:
DbDir
DictionaryFile dictionary.nt
Since an NT service has no concept of a current drive or current directory, I
suspect that Radiator cannot find the dictionary file with that configuration.
You should probably have something like:
DbDir c:\radiator
DictionaryFile %D\dictionary.nt
Hope that helps.
Cheers.

installed on a Windows NT 4 Server (SP5, IIS4, RRAS - not active) 128 Mb RAM
following the install instruction that are in the "Installation and Reference
Manual for Radiator v. 2.13.1". The software worked very well when I tested it
with "RADPWTST", "Ascend MAX 6000" and "NT - RRAS" connections. The only
problem I have encountered is making radiator start as a system service. I have
already downloaded SRVANY and INSTSRV and installed them in the "c:\reskit"
folder. My radiator path is ->> c:\radiator\radiusd , and my perl path is ->>
c:\perl\bin\perl.exe , following is my .cfg file and the regedt entrence I have
created:
