  mx5450,

               if I were you, I would think of changing the OS. I tried to use 
Suse for freeRADIUS installation and it didn't work. It has some exceptions and 
I wasn't able to find a work around.
              I'd suggest CentOS 5.2 or Ubuntu (last server version). They work 
fine wich freeRADIUS.

  regards, Bruno

    Team,

    I'm trying to set up freeradius 2.1.4 in a AMD 64 X2 system with an 
OpenSUSE 11.1 (x86_64.iso) OS.

    I must tell you that I'm new to Linux and Freeradius.

    According to the instructions on freeradius.org/radiusd/install I can 
either:

    1. Get a pre-installed binary package (Peter Nixon)
    2. get the FreeRADIUS tarball


    When I try to get the binary package 
(http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/network:/aaa/openSUSE_11.1/), I get 
a list of files/folders which I dont know what to do with them:

    i586/
    network:aaa.repo
    repodata/
    src/
    x86_64/

    As I got stuck, I tried to "build it" (? new term to me), by placing the 
tarball in usr/src/packages/SOURCES; extracting the freeradius.spec and placing 
it in usr/src/packages/SPECS. Then I run from the terminal prompt:

    rpmbuild -ba usr/src/packages/SPECS/ freeradius.spec

    However I got the message:

    mar...@win-219e0010bba:~> rpmbuild -ba 
/usr/src/packages/SPECS/freeradius.spec
    sh: apxs2-prefork: command not found

    I read about this and regarding the dependencies it seems that some 
"features" are not installed and that I need the OpenSUSE disk to load them 
from the YAST.

    However I can not seem to find what the "sh: apxs2-prefork: command not 
found" message is about or how to fix that.

    I'm stuck again.

    Could you help with this?

    Thanks in advance
