A minor question really. I have just upgraded a server from Fedora Core 3 (freeradius 1.0.1) to FC5 (freeradius 1.0.5). I notice that when I start freeradius on FC5 (using 'service radiusd start') a message is sent to stdout:
Fri Jun 16 12:06:59 2006 : Info: Starting - reading configuration files ...
Should this happen?
Probably not.
From the source code it seems that the message will always appear. The message is displayed before the radiusd.conf file is read, and since neither the logdir or log_file directives are set, radiusd sends the message to stdout.
However. In FC3 the /etc/init.d/radiusd startup script called a function which actually started radiusd using the 'initlog' command. This hid the stdout message I now see. In FC5 initlog is deprecated, and they just start radiusd directly. Hence I now see the message.
