Enabling syslog use with the very last 1.0 version is easy, but there is a small mistake in the man page. Intead of :
-l logging directory This defaults to /var/log. Radiusd writes a logfile here called radius.log. It contains informational and error messages, and optionally a record of every login attempt (for aiding an ISP's helpdesk). The special arguments stdout and stderr cause the information to get written to the standard output, or standard error instead. The special argument syslog sends the information with syslog(3).
This command line option is deprecated. See the log_dir config- uration item in the radiusd.conf file.
the correct entry in radius.cong must be : logdir.
What i did was renaming the variable logdir in log_dir for detail log use and i defined logdir = syslog
to be sure I also started radiusd with : -l syslog -g authpriv -Syz
activating all the log options in radius.conf will then work properly.
Thank's for the job ...
I have but it is problematic.
