"i'd like to share my internet through free radius solution" - you cannot.
You may authorize users, but you cannot share internet. What exactly do you want?

I want to let users use PPPOE Clients Software to connect to my linux server using username and password, so there is a site www.freeradius.org , the solution is freeradius icludes dialup admin web based application so we can configure our users with varios settings, i need to configure the solution and let users use the pppoe software from windows OS..

thanks
fadyz, ok
freeradius will allow you only to authenticate pppoe users.
Now you should configure pppoe server and direct it to use your RADIUS server.
Then you will configure users and try to login.
Users in RDAIUS are the same for PPPOE and for DIALUP. You may assign static ip address, dns servers etc. for each user.
pppoe server runs on your Linux and responds to pppoe service discovery requests,
then when user tries to connect, pppoe-server spawns separate pppd process to negotiate LCP with client and to create new pppX interface.
Now you need to tell your pppd to use RADIUS for authorization, but you cant, unless
you have patched pppd version specially for RADIUS. Here is one of such patches: http://www.xs4all.nl/~evbergen/radius-pppd.html
If pppd knows about RADIUS then user authenticates against your server and everything else works fine.
