Not really able to help you with your python script, but this is a 
really simple perl script I've written in the past (2005) for the same 
purpose.

It uses a simple configuration file format:
	radius_host=radius.example.com
	radius_port=1812
	radius_secret=foobar

It only does the AA part of RADIUS plus it supports Framed-IP-Address, 
in case you need it. Be warned that the latter is implemented in a 
rather hackish way.

IIRC, there are other solutions to RADIUS authentication that are more 
featureful. Haven't evaluated them though, the above works pretty well 
for me.
