Hello all, I am prototyping a wifi net access system using prebuilt version of freeradius that came with opensuse. The version is 1.0.4-4 Inorder to have control over the IP assigned when a user authenticates itself I have uncommented the mail_pool from the post auth and accounting section and kept the ippool main_pool section as it is the config. Unfortunately it does not work. When I run the raddius -X it throws me an error rlm_ippool: Failed to open file /etc/raddb/db.ippool: Permission denied The entire rml_pool error is listed below I thought the issue would be related to write access so I checked for the permission. The /etc/raddb directory owner is radiusd I am not sure what I am doing wrong Module: Loaded radutmp radutmp: filename = "/var/log/radius/radutmp" radutmp: username = "%{User-Name}" radutmp: case_sensitive = yes radutmp: check_with_nas = yes radutmp: perm = 384 radutmp: callerid = yes Module: Instantiated radutmp (radutmp) Module: Loaded IPPOOL ippool: session-db = "/etc/raddb/db.ippool" ippool: ip-index = "/etc/raddb/db.ipindex" ippool: range-start = 192.168.1.1 IP address [192.168.1.1] ippool: range-stop = 192.168.3.254 IP address [192.168.3.254] ippool: netmask = 255.255.255.0 IP address [255.255.255.0] ippool: cache-size = 800 ippool: override = no ippool: maximum-timeout = 0 rlm_ippool: Failed to open file /etc/raddb/db.ippool: Permission denied radiusd.conf[1483]: main_pool: Module instantiation failed.
