That's a terrible idea. Think about what you are trying to accomplish.
I would recommend you either put your configuration in some revision
control system or alternatively accept that Mr DeKok knows what he is
doing and thus not straying far from the 'Path of Light' is a Good
Idea(tm).
If you take up the latter you should:
* install from fresh a copy of FreeRADIUS (even if it is from
$DISTRO[favourite])
* assuming Debian, 'cp -a /etc/freeradius /etc/freeradius.orig'
* apply your needed changes to /etc/freeradius
* try to make the output of 'diff -u -r -N freeradius.org freeradius'
as small as possible whilst suiting your needs (learn to use
templates and policy.conf extensively)
This means that when you come to upgrading your FreeRADIUS installation,
you are applying a diff/patch file rather than trying to work everything
out from scratch. You can also trivially see what you have been
changing.
