I tried that but it doesn't work :-( what can I do? Let me try to start all over again, I will do: 1. Install Red Hat 2. Install MySQL Client 3. Test MySQL Clint (How?) 4. Install FreeRadius 5. Allow use of SQL in config 6. Run radiusd -X 7. It wont work so I'll be screwed again Is that correct? Or any other suggestions, cause this my sql feature is driving me crazy..
