Install the header files ( which should be automatically placed in /usr/include/mysql ), and then run the configure script like . ./configure --with-mysql-include-dir=<PATH to mysql include-dir> --with-mysql-lib-dir=<PATH to mysql-lib dir> --with-mysql-dir=<PATH to mysql-dir> Just as marco said... that shouldn't be a problem !

And its as appears installed by default in Red hat. Now what folders does Free Radius needs to work with MySQl, because when I did whereis mysql I got only "bin" and "lib" folder? _____ From: freeradius-users-bounces@lists.freeradius.org [mailto:freeradius-users-bounces@lists.freeradius.org] On Behalf Of Seferovic Edvin Sent: Sunday, October 23, 2005 1:27 PM To: 'FreeRadius users mailing list' Subject: RE: meed help on sering freeradius with MySQL Hi, while installing RedHat ( again I suppose ).. search for any packages which contain mysql in their name.. and simply installl them all.. you will get mysql-server, mysql-client and mysql-libraries installed...after installation just type "whereis mysql" and that will give you ( when correctly installed ) the paths to mysql-libraries and header files... you should use those directories when running ./configure ( of freeradius )... sometimes ./configure will look for mysql it self ( of course in default paths ), but you may want to tell the configure script where your mysql libs are.. just like marco wrote ! If you want to test mysql-client, you will need a server too... but when properly installed - there is no need of testing it...

Let me try to start all over again, I will do: 1. Install Red Hat 2. Install MySQL Client 3. Test MySQL Clint (How?) 4. Install FreeRadius 5. Allow use of SQL in config 6. Run radiusd -X 7. It wont work so I'll be screwed again Is that correct? Or any other suggestions, cause this my sql feature is driving me crazy..
