Alan, Thanks for your response.. First, I can't believe I missed this section of the radiusd.conf file, I looked, really I did :) I also noticed that it said that many things are logged when running "radiusd -X" which explains some other things.. I made some changes and now I have sufficient log info in the text files. Hate to push my luck here but I would love to expand what is being logged SQL wise in my MySql db. Right now, I have something like this logging on a failed attempt in the MySQL DB within the radpostauth table: id, username, pass, reply, authdate 41, dude@somerealm.com, mypass, Access-Accept, 2008-12-17 13:09:15 What I would like to see is something like this: id, username, pass, reply, reply-message, authdate 41, dude@somerealm.com, mybadpass, Access-Accept, Login incorrect (rlm_pap: CLEAR TEXT password check failed), 2008-12-17 13:09:15 Any help with this would be appreciated.

It seems that most things I have read suggest that failed authentication attempts are logged to the radius.log by default but they do not show up for me.
Edit raddb/radiusd.conf, and read the "log" section. It has configuration entries that control this behavior. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
