Here's where I am now: I have a user named radiusd in group radiusd.
I have tried chmod -R a+rwx /etc/raddb. I still get the 5968:error:0200100D:system library:fopen:Permission Denied:bss_file.c:104:fopen('/etc/raddb/certs/demoCA/cacert.pem','r') error. ls -l on the cacert.pem file shows that thefile has rwxrwxrwx. =( I know we don't want to run the server as root, but I'm running out of options in this Red Hat 9 system. Could it be rights to the ssl libraries????? The 1st error is the fopen one, are the others symptoms of the 1st one? Here's the current rights setup and execution: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# ls -l /etc/raddb/certs/demoCA/ total 20 -rwxrwxrwx 1 radiusd radiusd 1432 Feb 28 11:26 cacert.pem -rwxrwxrwx 1 radiusd radiusd 276 Feb 28 10:40 index.txt -rwxrwxrwx 1 radiusd radiusd 140 Feb 28 10:40 index.txt.old -rwxrwxrwx 1 radiusd radiusd 3 Feb 28 10:40 serial -rwxrwxrwx 1 radiusd radiusd 3 Feb 28 10:40 serial.old [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# /etc/init.d/radiusd start Starting RADIUS server: Fri Apr 1 15:57:43 2005 : Info: Starting - reading configuration files ... 5975:error:0200100D:system library:fopen:Permission denied:bss_file.c:104:fopen('/etc/raddb/certs/demoCA/cacert.pem','r') 5975:error:2006D002:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:system lib:bss_file.c:109: 5975:error:0B084002:x509 certificate routines:X509_load_cert_crl_file:system lib:by_file.c:279: [FAILED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# /usr/local/sbin/radiusd -A Fri Apr 1 15:57:51 2005 : Info: Starting - reading configuration files ... 5977:error:0200100D:system library:fopen:Permission denied:bss_file.c:104:fopen('/etc/raddb/certs/demoCA/cacert.pem','r') 5977:error:2006D002:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:system lib:bss_file.c:109: 5977:error:0B084002:x509 certificate routines:X509_load_cert_crl_file:system lib:by_file.c:279: [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
