No, it should be there if you installed the dictionary that came with 2.0.1.

The attribute 77 is from ComOS 3.7. You need to read the 3.7 release notes
and make
the appropriate changes.

it is the current version. If not you can get it from...

check to see if your dictionary has the Crypt-Password attribute. Check
the RADIUS 2.0.1 release notes as well.
