Hi, I tar the entire raddb directory (from the level above), reinstall, and untar the original config over the top of the new one. That way I can keep multiple configs whilst experimenting and switch between them.
Just move the raddb directory to /etc/raddb and change the install path to /usr/local, then modify the startup script to use -d /etc/raddb. /etc/raddb is actually a working copy checked out from our subversion repository, so we can switch between development and production configurations very easily.

Hi,
I do not know how to do it at compile time but you can do it at runtime by specifing -d your_directory to radiusd.
So perhaps a make install will install many configuration
files but
not where *your* configuration is.
Yes, I considered pointing --with-raddb-dir=/tmp/trash or so. But I
I am not sure but does that mean that the binary that you create would point to that directory too. So in that case, you would have to specify the real directory at runtime too.
don't want a one-time installation problem to require attention whenever I run the service in the future. It is then something to remember constantly (and to document for on-duty personnel
etc. ...),
only to fix a single-shot problem. It just doesn't sound
right to me.
Yes, I had not seen it from that point of view.
Greetings,
Have a nice day!
