  There are no standard RADIUS attributes to send group information in
a RADIUS packet.

  As of recently in the CVS snapshots, there is a "dictionary.unix"
file, with Unix group related attributes.  However... if the NAS
documentation doesn't say it understands those attributes, then it
won't use them.

  Uh, no.  The Aventail is authenticating via RADIUS.  FreeRADIUS can
be configured to do authentication against /etc/passwd, but the
Aventail NAS doesn't know that this is happening.

  It has nothing to do with "radiusd.conf".

  Why are you trying to send Unix group information to the NAS?
