Is there something available that is comparable to typical release notes for freeradius?
I am running Redhat version 3.0 with Freeradius 1.0.1 bundled. I would like to upgrade to Freeradius 1.1.4. Is their documentation available (installation requirements) that I could review that would specify if Freeradius 1.1.4 will run under Redhat version 3.0, etc? Basically, release notes for Freeradius. Thanks, Scott

Have a look at doc/ChangeLog in the source It should work on RedHat 3, if it doesn't let us know :-) Installation requirements vary wildly depending on which modules you want to use. If you want to use an Oracle backend then you will need to at a minimum have the oracle client library installed. If you just want to do radius auth from a text file then it has practically no external dependencies. PAM auth will require pam of course.. Here is the the list of Build Requirements from my rpm spec file for _mostly_ full support. (No oracle, DB2 or Firebird). Hope it helps: %if %{?suse_version:1}0 BuildRequires: apache2-devel BuildRequires: cyrus-sasl-devel %endif %if %{?mandriva_version:1}0 BuildRequires: apache2-devel %endif %if %{?redhat_version:1}0 BuildRequires: cyrus-sasl-devel BuildRequires: httpd-devel %endif %if 0%{?sles_version} < 10 %else BuildRequires: bind-libs %endif BuildRequires: db-devel BuildRequires: e2fsprogs-devel BuildRequires: gcc-c++ BuildRequires: gdbm-devel BuildRequires: gettext-devel BuildRequires: glibc-devel BuildRequires: libtool BuildRequires: mysql-devel BuildRequires: ncurses-devel BuildRequires: net-snmp-devel BuildRequires: openldap2-devel BuildRequires: openssl-devel BuildRequires: pam-devel BuildRequires: perl BuildRequires: postgresql-devel BuildRequires: python-devel BuildRequires: sed BuildRequires: unixODBC-devel BuildRequires: zlib-devel %if 0%{?suse_version} > 910 BuildRequires: krb5-devel %endif %if 0%{?suse_version} > 930 BuildRequires: libcom_err %if %suse_version > 1000 BuildRequires: libapr1-devel %else #BuildRequires: libapr0-devel %endif %endif %if 0%{?fedora_version} > 4 BuildRequires: syslog-ng %endif -- Peter Nixon http://www.peternixon.net/ PGP Key: http://www.peternixon.net/public.asc

We don't have the resources to test the server on every version of every OS, unfortunately. I don't see why it wouldn't work. You can use the "./configure --prefix=/opt/freeradius-1.1.4/" option to install 1.1.4 in a separate directory from 1.0.1. So if something goes wrong with the 1.1.4 build/install, just nuke /opt/freeradius-1.1.4, and everything will be fine.

Hi,
I am running Redhat version 3.0 with Freeradius 1.0.1 bundled.
I would like to upgrade to Freeradius 1.1.4.
Is their documentation available (installation requirements) that I could review that would specify if Freeradius 1.1.4 will run under Redhat version 3.0, etc? Basically, release notes for Freeradius.
it works fine - so long as when you compile it you not only have all the *-devel packages available - but you can also use the redhat .spec file to build it - and even an RPM so you can just install it on other boxes after. I dont know why redhat/fedora are so far bahind on the distro. alan
