Can someone show me how to load FR on boot in Ubuntu?

Not 100% sure off the top of my head, as I don't have an Ubuntu box in front of me, but I expect you'd have to provide an Upstart script [1]. However, upstart will use old sysv-init scripts if they exist, and I thought that FreeRadius already provided one of those? Hope this helps, Evan [1] http://upstart.at/
Thanks for the help, that did the trick. I found the rc.radiusd file and added to rc.local "/etc/sbin/rc.radiusd start" If that's not the correct method someone please let me know but it seems to work.

As far as the 'correct' method goes, you'd have to ask Ubuntu or Upstart. They would be the ones determining what 'correct' means on their systems. Evan

Where the heck does /etc/sbin/rc.radiusd comes from? Which Ubuntu and FR version are you using? Current FR packages for Ubuntu uses /etc/init.d/freeradius, although rc.radiusd is still available in /usr/share/doc/freeradius/examples.

Since FR is still using legacy init script, the "Debian" (and thus, Ubuntu) way of doing it is using update-rc.d (see "man update-rc.d"). However, being familiar with Redhat's chkconfig, I prefer to use sysv-rc-conf (from universe repository), which has similar syntax to chkconfig. With sysv-rc-conf, you'd do something like this: $ sudo sysv-rc-conf --list freeradius freeradius 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off $ sudo sysv-rc-conf freeradius on $ sudo sysv-rc-conf --list freeradius freeradius 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off -- Fajar

theres the debian directory which has freeradius.init in the tarball

in the source tarball there is also the redhat directry with freeradius-radiusd-init file - and radiusd-logrotate etc alan
