Unix passwd file

I have a FreeBSD Unix passwd file that I am trying to use with RadiusNT.
The hashing method is MD5. All encrypted passwds in the passwd file start
with $1$. When I run radius x15 (debug mode), I see that radius reads the
entry from the Unix password file and displays it on the screen:

(UNIX) User Password: password File Password: $1$.......

but the Encrypted Password line reads:

Encrypted Password: $1......

If does not contain the $ after the 1. Also, the password string is much
shorter than the Unix encrypted password string. I then get a message:

Sending Reject of id 93 to cdf3a914 (205.243.160.20).

Thanks,
