The reason for this is that both radtest and radctl attempt to connect
the server at wrong IP. Default configuration for them is to connect
localhost (127.0.0.1).

To change this edit your <sysconfdir>/raddb/radctl.rc. For example,
if your server listens on 10.10.10.1 and is configured to use shared
secret "guessme" for connections from localhost, your radctl.rc
should contain:

(set! rad-server-list
      '(("myserver" "10.10.10.1" "guessme" 1645 1646 5000)))

(rad-client-source-ip "127.0.0.1")
(rad-client-timeout 3)
(rad-client-retry 1)
(rad-select-server "myserver")

Currently no. The version 0.96, which is about to be released, will
support this.
