  There *is* a place.  It's on the main web page.  It's up to date.  Yet
many people *still* use third-party "howto's" that are years out of date.

  Is there some secret documentation saying "don't read the FreeRADIUS
documentation"?

  Don't follow any of it.  Read the documentation that comes with
FreeRADIUS, and with the Wiki.

  The "INSTALL" file that comes with the server describes how it
automatically creates certificates.  Maybe the binaries for your
distribution don't include this file...
