pyrad is an implementation of a RADIUS client as described in RFC2138.
It takes care of all the details like building RADIUS packets, sending
them and decoding responses. 

Here is an example of doing a authentication request:

  from pyrad.client import Client
  from pyrad.dictionary import Dictionary

  srv=Client("radius.my.domain")
  srv.secret="radius secret"
  srv.dict=Dictionary("/etc/radb/dictionary")

  req=srv.CreatePacket()
  req.code=pyrad.client.AccessRequest
  req["User-Name"]="wichert"
  req["User-Password"]="password"
  req["NAS-Identifier"]="localhost"

  reply=srv.SendPacket(req)
  if reply.code==pyrad.client.AccessAccept:
      print "access accepted"
  else:
      print "access denied"

  print "Attributes returned by server:"
  for i in reply.keys():
      print "%s: %s" % (i, reply[i])
