I have not been actively doing any development lately, but I did 
a bunch of development pre 1.0 to ensure the PostgreSQL and MySQL 
had the same functionality.

The maintainer for the FreeBSD port is quite good, and I have not 
had any problems with the port in the past.

There have been an enormous amount of posts on this topic, and it 
has been answered a hundred times. The information is out there
there is also sample data that I have posted a number of times.

It would help if the original poster, let us know what version 
of FreeBSD he was using. He  mentions Mandrake 10.2 but as far 
as I know they don't have a FreeBSD distribution. ;^)

I was planning on doing some more testing soon, I will try to 
get to it today.

Hi Eric,

I build MySQL on FreeBSD boxes which act as RADIUS servers without
linux-threads or pthreads.

  I suggest asking on the freebsd ports list, asking the maintainer,
or looking through the freebsd bug list.

  I don't know any developer who uses FreeBSD, so that makes it
difficult to track down the problem.

I've never had a problem installing freeradius w/ mysql on freebsd. 
I've heard of others having issues when they install mysql with linux
threads, such as WITH_LINUXTHREADS=yes on a port install.

I'd try first installing mysql 50 server from the ports collection,
without using linux threads.  I usually just do a make install clean
w/out any additional arguments.  Then install freeradius from the
ports collection.  That's always worked for me.

What version of freebsd are you using?
