Question : Cisco 2950 24 port - VLANs configured, ports added, they even work - but config tells me VLAN2 is administratively down??

Hi, as mentioned above, I have created two VLANs on a 2950 switch and added ports to port VLANS. I have tested this and it works, I can ping within the VLANs but not between them. Excellent. What I also want to do is assign both VLANs a management IP address so that I can telnet to them and access them when they're on the remote site. I've assigned an IP to VLAN 2 but when I look at the VLAN's properties it says it's administratively down. What haven't I done?
sh int vlan 2
VLAN2 is administratively down, line protocol is down Hardware is CPU Interface, address is 0030.8028.7440 (bia 0030.8028.7440) Internet address is 192.168.0.253/24 MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbit, DLY 1000 usec, reliability 255 Encapsulation ARPA ARP type: ARPA, ARP Timeout 04:00:00
sh vlan

(I know it looks like not all of the first bunch of ports are in VLAN 2, but they are, my terminal software is being buggy). Can anyone recommend some freeware terminal software by the way?
Also, last couple of questions, can I configure the switch to authenticate telnet/ssh sessions by RADIUS? How do I set the telnet/enable passwords?
Thanks.

switch#config t switch(config)#interface vlan2 switch(config)#no shut switch(config)#exit switch#
Additionally, any one of the actual physical ports in vlan2 must be plugged into something.
