Hello, A minor question really. I have just upgraded a server from Fedora Core 3 (freeradius 1.0.1) to FC5 (freeradius 1.0.5). I notice that when I start freeradius on FC5 (using 'service radiusd start') a message is sent to stdout: Fri Jun 16 12:06:59 2006 : Info: Starting - reading configuration files ... Should this happen? I thought this should be logged in the log file (defined in the radiusd.conf). I'm asking because I'm just wondering if this is indicative of my having misconfigured something? I couldn't find anything in the changelog about this. Thanks, John. -- --------------------------------------------------------------- John Horne, University of Plymouth, UK Tel: +44 (0)1752 233914 E-mail: John.Horne@plymouth.ac.uk Fax: +44 (0)1752 233839

Probably not. Alan DeKok.

Ah. Any ideas of what to look at? I've checked the radiusd.conf and the syslog.conf file but cannot really see anything wrong. I'll grab the RPM source and see if I can see what happens.

There's nothing wrong in the config, put it down to a bug in the server. It should be fixed at some point... Alan DeKok.

From the source code it seems that the message will always appear. The message is displayed before the radiusd.conf file is read, and since neither the logdir or log_file directives are set, radiusd sends the message to stdout.
However. In FC3 the /etc/init.d/radiusd startup script called a function which actually started radiusd using the 'initlog' command. This hid the stdout message I now see. In FC5 initlog is deprecated, and they just start radiusd directly. Hence I now see the message.
