Thats true, but as a beginner it is not clear what is important to set up. Most people simply want to connect their notebook over WLAN to their network, other go more into detail with LDAP, SQL whatever.
That really is the fundamental problem, and one I've seen a lot. Everyone wants documentation for how to configure the server for their system. They'd rather not read through documentation for how to configure *other* peoples systems. And they'd rather not read through general documentation saying how the server works, and what each module does. I plan on addressing at least some of that with my book.
As you and others reply on questions of people on the list is very often like "tell us in detail what you want to do..." is not what many people seek, I think most expect to be told what is important and what they should do.
Yes, and many questions are "How do I configure the server to do stuff?" That's a useless question, and guaranteed to not solve the problem.
P.S: I look for a good book, covering all about radius and especially FR. As an overview and as a reference.
I'm writing one. I've got about 60 pages of good content, and 50 pages of rough notes. Alan DeKok. -- http://deployingradius.com - The web site of the book http://deployingradius.com/blog/ - The blog
