Hello freeradius-users, I am working with an inherited system (freeradius 0.9.0 on RH). The system is running but as a new user/admin I am having trouble getting info on the actual setup. I do 'rpm -qv freeradius' and it returns freeradius is not installed, yet it IS. /usr/local/etc/raddb is populated, as is /usr/local/share/freeradius. How can I get info on the running version? Also, I am having trouble finding info on attributes that do not seem to be documented which limit some of our user's sessions. Examples are 'Max-Acct-Age', 'Max-Daily-Session', and 'Check-Login-Day'. I need to get a better understanding of how this session management is done. Good documentation on the web seems hard to come by. Any help most appreciated. -- Regards, Andrew Long

Someone built it from source. You *really* should upgrade.

"man radiusd" says "radiusd -v"

They're local to your configuration, which is why they aren't documented.

Hello Alan, OK, I'm starting out the upgrade by running through a compile on a test server with mysql 5.0.18-2.1. Are there any specific files in the running install I can look at which will provide clues what options need to be compiled in to the upgrade. And, is a pure upgrade possible, without re-compiling? -- Regards, Andrew Long Network Support Specialist EscapeWire Solutions, LLC 617 Dingens Street Buffalo, NY 14206 Office: (716) 893-4984 Mobile: (716) 830-5169 Fax: (716) 891-4288 Web: http://www.escapewire.com E-mail: along@escapewire.com Friday, September 29, 2006, 4:58:38 PM, you wrote:

Depends entirely on which modules you are using.
And, is a pure upgrade possible, without re-compiling?
What does this mean? pure upgrade?? -- Peter Nixon http://www.peternixon.net/ PGP Key: http://www.peternixon.net/public.asc
As I have inherited the system and am very new to radius, I have no idea which modules are currently installed. How can I determine? In reading over the configure/install docs, I so far see nothing about modules. Where can I get info on modules? -- Regards, Andrew Long

Hi,

if you have the old source directory lying around you can easily view, eg config.log which will, in the 7th or so line, show you the options passed in the previous ./configure session. ie the options compiled in. squid has an option to view the options configured into it using its verbose version command..i dont *think* freeradius has that option. alan
