Hi Nicolas,

Thanks so much for your answer. What i meant was, in the terminal,
what can I type as a test to get a response from a running instance of
freeradius.

by RAS, I mean Remote Access Server. Also know as a Network Access
Server. As I understand it, the PPPoE users first hit the RAS, then
the rAS passes the query off to freeRadius, then freeRadius tells the
RAS what to do based on the user's validity, and the RAS either
accepts or rejects the user.

Do I have the concept right? And if so, do you or anyone know of a RAS
software that will run on OS X?

Ah, then I have misunderstood you. Sorry that I could not help you.

Perhaps this answer can bring you further:

Another question i have, When I spoke briefly to the folks at Network
RADIUS, they told me that freeRadius includes the required db schema
for mySQL. When I installed mySQL 5.1, there was a db in there that I
didn't recognize, called information_schema, comprised of 28 tables.
Is this it, or is there something special I need to do to enable the
schema, as i understand from the docs that freeRadius will work with
almost any datasource including flatfiles.

Thanks in advance.

PS, if you're wondering if I'm aware of the irony in my name, the
answer is yes ;)

Have a nice day!

Hi,

I am in the process of setting up freeRADIUS on Mac OSX. We're a small
group looking into becoming a WISP. Can anyone tell me if there is a
RAS that runs on OSX?

If by RAS, you mean remote access, then MacOSX has plenty of them:
- ssh
- (direct) remote desktop client (MacOS 10.5; see in Finder)
- remote desktop per iChat (MacOS 10.5)



The install of freeRADIUS itself seems to have gone smoothly, and I
installed MySQL 5.1 as well, no hitches. I have not, tho, found out
how to tell is freeRADIUS is actually running or not.

If by "actually running or not", you mean that a user could check then use:
ps ax
If you mean that a program should check I am not sure. A shell script could
use ps, fgrep and co to do that.


Thanks in advance for all help.
