Hi Alan, Thanks for your reply. I have made a backup of the v2.2.0 configuration files. To ensure I get the new features of v2.2.5 and the custom changes that were in place for v2.2.0, how would you suggest I go about the integration of the configuration files? Should I start with all the v2.2.0 files and ensure the new version works with them, then integrate the v2.2.5 changes, testing them one-by-one? Or is there a better method? For v2.2.0, I upgraded from a package install, so everything was in a different location. I added the previous custom changes into the v2.2.0 configuration files and it worked pretty much first time. That approach hasn't worked this time. Thanks Martin.

Hi,
We have FreeRadius v2.2.0 running on Centos 6 VMs and want to upgrade to v2.2.5.
Various files in /usr/local/etc/raddb have been customised for use with our eduroam network.
Is there a recommended upgrade method for v2.2.5?
do what you did to build/install 2.2.0
before you 'make install' you should do a backup copy *just in case* eg cp -R /usr/local/etc/raddb /usr/local/etc/raddb.backup
FreeRADIUS installer should not touch any files that already exist - however, note that this means some files (eg dictionary files) might not have newer entries in..and any FreeRADIUS config files that use new features/expose new features wont be seen in your config - so read/compare the new 2.2.5 src raddb entries to see what you are missing out on :-)
