You can configure your radius to default to using old-style ports by running

   ./configure --with-auth-port=old

or

   ./configure --with-auth-port=1645   
   
Alternatively, you can specify different set of ports (or IP addresses
and ports) using `port' and `listen' statements in your raddb/config
file. For detailed description of these, see

http://www.gnu.org/software/radius/manual/html_node/radius_27.html#SEC37

and

Yes, in contrast to Cistron implementation, GNU radius does extensive
syntax and semantics checking on its startup files before using them.
