List, I know this thread is about dead, but I wanted to correct some things.

Running configure builds that module for you, it does not build the database. The database must by built by you, by hand! The tricky part is the fact that you must have the mysql development libraries installed on your system before these modules will build. The file "~/freeradius-0.8.1/src/modules/rlm_sql/drivers/rlm_sql_mysql/db_mysql.sql" is the file you pass into mysql to create the tables in the database for you. However, you must have created the database itself prior to trying to create the tables. If you look the the first few lines of "db_mysql.sql" you will see this: ######################################################## # db_mysql.sql rlm_sql - FreeRADIUS SQL Module # # # # Database schema for MySQL rlm_sql module # # # # To load: # # mysql -uroot -prootpass radius < db_mysql.sql # This is assuming that you create a database called "radius" by hand before you run the above mysql command. > The mysql libraries are kept in /usr/lib/mysql.

These above paths may be correct on your system, but different linux distributions and other OS's can have different paths. I don't want to sound like an a$$, I just wanted to make some clarifications. Hope this helps! Nick > > Kenneth L.
