As for as the Bootstrap Daemon, it looks like it is only a plist file that needs to be created in /etc/mach_init.d directory. From my quick look at the current .plist files in the directory, all that would need to be created is a FreeRADIUS.plist file with the following as the contents:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd";> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>ServiceName</key> <string>FreeRADIUS Server</string> <key>Command</key> <string>/usr/local/freeradius/sbin/rc.radiusd start</string> <key>OnDemand</key> <false/> </dict> </plist> Now that OnDemand key is default to true according to the documentation, but without actually testing in that configuration, I would set the key to false to force the startup of the FreeRADIUS daemon whenever the server starts up. I'll test this out too.
