Hi, Not sure if you got this sorted out, but I had the same problem; it seems that when I upgraded to 1.1.7 the raddb directory itself got chmod-ed to 700 as well as the config files being chmod 600. Since I run radiusd as user nobody, hilarity ensued. A few chmods sorted it out. Thanks, Alex On 04/06/07, David E. Meier <dev@eth0.ch> wrote:

Hi Folks,

I'am trying to get FreeRadius running on FreeBSD 6.2. I followed the tutorial from chillispot.org (http://www.chillispot.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1431). When I try to start FreeRadius I receive this error:

# /usr/local/sbin/radiusd -X : Module: Loaded preprocess preprocess: huntgroups = "/usr/local/etc/raddb/huntgroups" preprocess: hints = "/usr/local/etc/raddb/hints" preprocess: with_ascend_hack = no preprocess: ascend_channels_per_line = 23 preprocess: with_ntdomain_hack = no preprocess: with_specialix_jetstream_hack = no preprocess: with_cisco_vsa_hack = no preprocess: with_alvarion_vsa_hack = no rlm_preprocess: Error reading /usr/local/etc/raddb/huntgroups radiusd.conf[1018]: preprocess: Module instantiation failed. radiusd.conf[1798] Unknown module "preprocess". radiusd.conf[1788] Failed to parse authorize section.

# ls -al /usr/local/etc/raddb drw-r--r-- 3 root wheel 1024 Jun 4 15:14 . drwxr-xr-x 10 root wheel 512 Jun 4 12:02 .. : -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 1603 Jun 4 15:14 huntgroups

So I think the file should be readable by anyone. The file contains comments only anyway. Searching Google does not point out helpful information - I also tried with an empty file with no luck. I also noticed when commenting out the huntgroups file in radiusd.conf has no effect and radiusd exits with the same error. Any thoughts on this? Thanks.

David
