Sure - on your Authentication server, add something like this:
Host your.accounting.server
Secret youracctsecret
If you are currently using Realms, change them to Handlers like this:
->
You will also need to be careful with ordering the Handlers so the more
specific appear in the configuration file before the more general.
Note that the Request-Type check item appeared in Radiator 2.15 (or
alternatively there is a patch for Radiator 2.14.1).
Of course, you will also need to create a Client clause on your Accounting
server to match the AuthBy RADIUS above.
