Hi,

I am using
FreeRadius Version 2.1.12 on OpenSuse 12.2.

I have looked at several posting about the same type of problem without finding the answer to my failure.
Problem described below.

First use of radiusd -X resulted in /var/run/radiusd not found.

Created : mkdir /var/run/radiusd
Now radiusd -X seems to work; see attachment "radiusd.txt" for the output.

First line in "/etc/raddb/users" is: testing Cleartext-Password := "password"

Using radtest failed:

linux-vdis:/etc/raddb # radtest testing password localhost 0 testing123
radclient:: Failed to find IP address for linux-vdis.site
radclient: Nothing to send.

Pinging localhost works:

linux-vdis:/etc/raddb # ping localhost
PING localhost (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from localhost (127.0.0.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.065 ms


Is the missing /var/run/radiusd an indication that the installation is incorrect?
FreeRadius was installed using Yast2 software manager.
