since you are using freebsd 4.10 while i look the code of user ppp in
freebsd 5.3... please check at /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp/radius.c function
radius_Authenticate() if you find this:

    if (rad_put_string(r->cx.rad, RAD_NAS_IDENTIFIER, hostname) != 0) {
      log_Printf(LogERROR, "rad_put: rad_put_string: %s\n",
                 rad_strerror(r->cx.rad));
      rad_close(r->cx.rad);
      return 0;
    }
  }

  if ((mac_addr = getenv("HISMACADDR")) != NULL &&
      rad_put_string(r->cx.rad, RAD_CALLING_STATION_ID, mac_addr) != 0) {
    log_Printf(LogERROR, "rad_put: %s\n", rad_strerror(r->cx.rad));
    rad_close(r->cx.rad);
    return;
  }

  radius_put_physical_details(r->cx.rad, authp->physical);

if you dont find RAD_CALLING_STATION_ID then fetch the latest version of
user-ppp and youll be fine...

pppoed is the one resposible assigning the mac address to environment
variable HISMACADDR while the user-ppp get and put it to CALLING_STATION_ID
radius attribute (as show above code)... therefore user-ppp automatically do
it for you to send that radius attribute..
