Guys,
let me make sure I understood your thoughts.
I cannot use this freeradius-2.1.1-2.fc10 from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=298 because my OS is not fedora , is that right ?
Correct. This one probably wouldn't even work on Fedora 8 or Fedora 9, it's specific to Fedora 10. The distribution-specific RPM's will have dependencies on versions of packages that come with that distribution. Try to use it on a different distro and you will get unsatisfied dependencies.
So my only option is to use freeradius-server-2.1.1.tar.gz and manually try to satisfy the dependencies from those warnings ?
Or find an RPM that is for your distribution. But if you do compile from source, it will be up to you to find out what -devel packages you need. The configure/compile/link process will probably turn up errors that are due to missing header files (.h) or missing library files (undefined symbols and so forth). Installing the proper -devel package will normally provide the missing files, but it's not always obvious which -devel package you need to fix a given error. Google searches can help here. --Greg
