I just got this working after about half a day of messing around with it.
I believe the entire issue is the installation of the FreeRadius docker does not populate the /etc/raddb folder in your appdata folder.
So, starting the docker initially with no paths to the specific configuration files is required to copy them to a temporary path.
### Create container path "temp"
Container Path: /temp /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/
### Start freeradius docker
### Open console and copy any files you want to map. You may not need all of these.
root@2ee28889069d:/etc/raddb# cp clients.conf /temp/
root@2ee28889069d:/etc/raddb# cp dictionary /temp/
root@2ee28889069d:/etc/raddb# cp radiusd.conf /temp/
root@2ee28889069d:/etc/raddb# cp templates.conf /temp/
root@2ee28889069d:/etc/raddb# cp trigger.conf /temp/
root@2ee28889069d:/etc/raddb# cp mods-config/files/* /temp/mod-config/files/
### Check the file owner and permissions of the copied files. Mine copied over as an SMB share username, except for the mod-config folder. I probably created that manually.
### This may require tweaking later, but I don't know at this point. The docker would NOT start if the mod-config folder was owned by root:root.

-rw-r--r-- 1 nobody users 3470 Apr 1 10:33 templates.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 nobody users 8536 Apr 1 10:33 trigger.conf
### I checked that I was able to see and EDIT the files from an SMB share.
### Edit docker and add all the paths of the files/folders above
### I could not get the Docker to start if I mapped the entire ./mod-config/files/ folder. I had to map each file individually. I have no idea why. Looking back it might of not been enough permissions (755 needed?)
clients.conf /etc/raddb/clients.conf /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/clients.conf
radiusd.conf /etc/raddb/radiusd.conf /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/radiusd.conf
trigger.conf /etc/raddb/trigger.conf /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/trigger.conf
templates.conf /etc/raddb/templates.conf /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/templates.conf
dictionary /etc/raddb/dictionary /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/dictionary
authorize /etc/raddb/mods-config/files/authorize /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/mod-config/files/authorize
accounting /etc/raddb/mods-config/files/accounting /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/mod-config/files/accounting
dhcp /etc/raddb/mods-config/files/dhcp /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/mod-config/files/dhcp
pre-proxy /etc/raddb/mods-config/files/pre-proxy /mnt/user/appdata/freeradius/raddb/mod-config/files/pre-proxy
### Edit the configurations as required for your configuration
### At minumum you will need to edit clients.conf and add your private-network and radius secret:
client private-network-lab {
ipaddr = 10.99.99.0/24
secret = testing123
}
### and add a user in the mod-config/files/authorize file
radius-test-username Cleartext-Password := "radius-test-password"
Reply-Message := "Hello, %{User-Name}"
### Stop the docker. Note doing a "service freeradius restart" resulted in a "unable to bind port" error in the /var/log/freeradius/radius.log/
### Start the docker

This finally got it running for me. I haven't seen any posts of other people getting this to work. I refused to be defeated, LOL.
