Hi Andrey. Edit your radiusd.conf and uncomment: #user = nobody #group = nobody
You can manually add new users the radius will run as. Propaly the easiest way is to run vipw and copy line from some other service, change the uid, gid and the username, edit /etc/group and put there your group as well. Something like this should do on FreeBSD: radiusd:*:101:101::0:0:Radius Daemon:/var/log/radius:/usr/sbin/nologin Or Linux radiusd:x:101:101:Radius Daemon:/var/log/radius:/bin/false and in /etc/group radiusd:*:101: chown -R radiusd:radiusd your log file and propaly the config files Then it should look something like: #ps auxww | grep rad radiusd 81708 0.0 1.0 9316 4944 ?? Ss 11:26PM 0:00.01 /usr/local/sbin/radiusd Cheers, Marcin On Wed, 1 Jun 2005 16:49:37 -0400 Andrey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > Just a quick question about running radiusd as a user other than root.
