I have a server that is running a relatively clean install of Ubuntu 9.10 Server. Due to the known licensing issue restrictions I cannot simply use the debian freeradius package. I would like to know if the following outline would install freeradius with support for SSL on my server. Comments from those who actually run freeradius on Ubuntu 9.10 server would be appreciated.

 

$cd ~

$apt-get source freeradius

$cd ./freeradius-2.1.0+dfsg

[change ./debian/rules as follows:

 

change --without-rlm_eap_tls \
            --without-rlm_eap_ttls \
            --without-rlm_eap_peap \

to --with-rlm_eap_tls \
    --with-rlm_eap_ttls \
    --with-rlm_eap_peap \

change --without-openssl \

to --with-openssl \

]

 

[change ./debian/control

add 'libssl-dev' to the end of the line that starts 'Build-Depends:'

]

 

$fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc
$sudo dpkg -i ../freeradius_2.1.0-0_i386.deb

These have been the instructions that I have garnered from the Internet at large, yet I doubt they are complete. Is there anything the freeradius community would like to add?
