Firstly, I strongly recommend you set up a test copy of FR with its own test
db, and work on that with a test client, before laying hands on your live
server.  Just my $0.02, but you could avoid a lot of pain and heartache that
way.  Might take an hour or so to set up, but worth the effort.

Either.

The normal SQL command delimiter is the ;, but the stored procedures you
will be defining use ; as an end of line delimiter.  So before you enter the
procedures, you have to tell MySQL to use something else as the command
delimiter:

mysql> delimiter ^
mysql> show tables^
+------------------+
| Tables_in_radius |

... then switch it back to ; when you are done.  If you cat the commands
from a file (as per your Q2), you'll need to add the delimiter command to
the start of the file.

Nope.
