Sure there isn’t an /etc/radium.conf file ??
Just to be sure, try putting a ‘X’ as the first argument to radium.

   ./radium -XS localhost:562 -P 561 -d

If you want to access from localhost and the specific IP address, don’t use BIND … use a firewall to control who can get to argus or radium.  With radium and argus running together, usually argus BINDS to localhost, so anything external to the machine has to go through radium.
