What exactly is your question? You need a daemon listening on port 1645. By the way, tcp or udp port 1645?
What is the "sockstat -4 | grep 1645" ?

If there's no output at all, then no daemon is listening on port 1645, which also means you don't get a connection to 1645.

According to /etc/services:
[mhettwer at blowfish] <~>grep 1645 /etc/services                                                                                                                         [10:37:36 on 07-10-22]
# IMPORTANT NOTE: Ports 1645/1646 are the traditional radius ports used by

Do you want to run a radius server?
