Alan and all,

Thanks for your help.  

Here is an issue that I cannot get worked out.  However, if I run the > mysql –u radius –p radius command it will take me right to the radius database so it is working (right?)

sql: safe-characters = "@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789.-_: /"

rlm_sql (sql): Driver rlm_sql_mysql (module rlm_sql_mysql) loaded and linked

rlm_sql (sql): Attempting to connect to radius@localhost:/radius

Module: Instantiated sql (sql)

Then tell the server to use that password instead of the Unix module

Where is this process at?  I cannot find it in the Radius book I bought.

Thanks

Dwane

  Don't.  Run the server in debugging mode.

  The Unix module says that the password is wrong, or the user doesn't exist in /etc/passwd.

  Then tell the server to use that password instead of the Unix module.
