Problem with FreeRadius starting up
Hello All: I'm running FreeRadius 0.9.3 on a serverwhich usesLinux Redhat 9. Here is the problem. When i first installed FreeRadius about 8 months ago, i addedthe rc.radiusd script to my Linux startup.Lately, whenI reboot my server, my Linux startup screen shows that FreeRadius has started upwith no errors as it always has, but when i do a ps -aux from the Linux command line, it shows that it is not in the list of things running. I have to actually cd to /usr/local/sbin and start radiusd from there before FreeRadius will work correctly again. The weird thing is, this has not always been an on-going problem. It just started about 2 months ago. I thought for a while that it was my Linux server, but everything else on the server starts normallywhen i reboot. The only thing that does not start is FreeRadius. Again, Linux is showing that it is starting, but in reality, it's not. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Send us your start up script. here it runs like this : # Start the Radius daemon: if [ -f /usr/local/sbin/radiusd ]; then echo -n Starting radius /usr/local/sbin/radiusd -y fi []'s On Wed, 2 Mar 2005, Linda Pagillo wrote: Date: Wed, 2 Mar 2005 12:58:20 -0600 From: Linda Pagillo [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: freeradius-users@lists.freeradius.org To: FreeRadius Maillist freeradius-users@lists.freeradius.org Subject: Problem with FreeRadius starting up Hello All: I'm running FreeRadius 0.9.3 on a server which uses Linux Redhat 9.

Re: Problem with FreeRadius starting up
That warm fuzzy status indicator as thus: [ OK ] is just that. It can be fooled. If I recall right, there's an init script and a .spec file for building rpms in the tarball.

Re: Problem with FreeRadius starting up
Make sure that the rc.radiusd script (probably /etc/init.d/radiusd) is looking for the correct files. It just stops if it doesn't find them.
