Thank you for your bug report. The init script in Fedora (F-12) and the soon to be released new version of freeradius (e.g. freeradius2) in RHEL 5 have fixed the init script issues. I'm going to close this as WONTFIX because this was filed against RHEL 4 and this particular issue does not seem to warrant the costs associated with issuing a RHEL errata (especially since more current versions have addressed the issue).
