Hello all, I'm trying to setup radiusd to start when the computer boots up, and to get started again if it fails. I'm running Mandrake Linux 8.2.
I've read a good few of the mailing list posts about this and have installed daemontools, which works fine :) I tried to run radiusd as a service (please excuse my terminology if that's not a unix term!) by putting the provided radiusd script (from the scripts directory in the extracted source files) into the /etc/rc.d/init.d directory and created all the appropriate symlinks in rc0.d, rc1.d, rc3.d, and rc5.d. When I boot up I can see the message "Starting radiusd [OK]" amongst all the other services like httpd, etc., so I presume it's running, but when I log in and type "lsof -i" at the command line I don't see any radiusd processes running :( Does this mean that the radius server isn't running (that's where I've seen it when I run it just from the command line) or is it in fact running but services are shown somewhere else? I would reallllly appreciate it if someone would take me through how to get radiusd to start at boot time (with daemontools also monitoring it without me having to type supervise /var/svc/radiusd every time I reboot)?
