I'm trying to run 2 separate instances of freeradius for testing another .sql authorization database. I've created a second .conf file location- /etc/raddb2 and similarly created locations for the run and log files (/var/log/radiusd2, /var/run/radiusd2) and edited the 2nd radiusd.conf file appropirately, so I thought- binding it to an IP not used by my other instance of the freeradius server and specifying port 1820 in my second radiusd.conf file. But when I try to run in debug mode, I get this: [root@srv run]# /usr/sbin/radiusd2 -d /etc/raddb2 -XX Fri Jan 4 18:38:47 2008 : Info: Starting - reading configuration files ...
