	Most common radius servers support proxy forwarding to another
	radius server.  This is usually a better solution :-)

	If you want to forward on a lower layer, just use:

	# ipfw add divert natd ip from any to any via $INT
	# natd -redirect_port udp $NEW_IP:1645 $OLD_IP:1645 -redirect_port
	udp $NEW_IP:1646 $OLD_IP:1646 -n $INT

	Or the equivalent ipfilter map commands.
