if your radius authentication info is in a database like mysql or pgsql or 
similar, pure-ftpd has built-in mechanisms for authenticating against those 
(check the docs)

if not, then you will have to write your own authentication module, a sample 
one is included with the distribution.

If you have any problems setting those up, feel free to ask on the list :)
