Could it be possible to extend PPPoE Error code?

Hello Joe -

There is a RADIUS "Reply-Message" reply attribute that can be used to  
send any message you wish in an Access-Reject. However the display of  
whatever is sent in the "Reply-Message" is up to your NAS equipment  
and/or connecting client device. In my experience there are almost no  
client devices that actually display the "Reply-Message", but as  
always YMMV.

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
