Hi,

@Fablen:
I first used "synaptic packet manger" to install free radius as it synaptic pkt. manger takes care of the dependencies. After insatlling freeradius through the synaptic pkt. manger I could not find any of the freeradius subdirectories.
So, I removed freeradius completely again using synaptic manager.

Then I decided to download .tar.gz file from the link that I had sent earlier and ran:
./configure
make
make install
I just got one error for some particular package, I googled the error and insatlled "libltdl-dev" package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libltdl-dev
After that everything went smoothly and I did face any error. I am sure all dependencies were found.

can you also tell me why I don't have "raddb" in /etc/ ?. It makes me believe as If there something is wrong (which might ot might noe be true!!)

thank you so much.

Do you need any other info on this?

@Suman:

I went to "/usr/local/lib" and executed the following command to see the symlink:

root@kartik-laptop:/usr/local/lib# ls -l| grep free
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      20 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-eap-2.1.0.la -> libfreeradius-eap.la
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root   50105 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-eap-2.1.0.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   60316 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-eap.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root     934 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-eap.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      26 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-eap.so -> libfreeradius-eap-2.1.0.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      23 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-radius-2.1.0.la -> libfreeradius-radius.la
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 359344 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-radius-2.1.0.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 487416 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-radius.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root     891 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-radius.la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      29 2010-08-17 22:35 libfreeradius-radius.so -> libfreeradius-radius-2.1.0.so

libfreeradius-radius.so is linked to itself it seems.

Can you please tell me when you say:
>ln -s /usr/local/lib/ libfreeradius-radius-2.1.0.so /usr/lib
Where in "/usr/lib" or to what exact file in "/usr/lib"do you want me to point /usr/local/lib/ libfreeradius-radius-2.1.0.so to?

can you also tell me why I don't have "raddb" in /etc/ ?. It makes me believe as If there something is wrong (which might ot might noe be true!!)

Thank you so much for replying and trying to helping me out.

path issue.

create symlink to the particular files.

ln -s /usr/local/lib/ libfreeradius-radius-2.1.0.so /usr/lib

there may be some more missing files whose symlink you need to do .

Let me know if it works.

Hi,

-freeradius version: freeradius-2.1.0+dfsg (downloaded from http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/karmic/freeradius)
-OS: Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala)

I was unable to download but now i get a page that is not empty.

But, if i check depends of my binary deb :
*Depends: lsb-base (>= 3.0-6), libc6 (>= 2.7-1), libfreeradius2 (= 2.0.4+dfsg-6), libgdbm3, libltdl3 (>= 1.5.2-2), libpam0g (>= 0.99.7.1), libperl5.10 (>=
5.10.0), libsnmp15 (>= 5.4.1~dfsg), libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8f-5), python2.5 (>= 2.5), freeradius-common

If you want to compile your own freeradius, it should be easier to use the .deb source. You'll get a .deb binary package and all the advantages of .deb.
