Start up FreeRADIUS without all ldap servers present
I've configured my FreeRADIUS to use a virtual module 'uobldap' which is a redundant-load-balance set of 3 individual ldap servers. This works reasonably well, with one exception: if you try and start radiusd when one or more of the ldap servers is unavailable, the daemon hangs continuously retrying the connector. Is there a way to make FreeRADIUS start up with a degraded set of ldap connectors? Thanks, Jonathan -- Jonathan Gazeley Senior Systems Administrator IT Services University of Bristol

Have you tried ldap { pool { start = 0 } } ? Matthew -- Matthew Newton, Ph.D. <mcn4@leicester.ac.uk> Systems Specialist, Infrastructure Services, I.T. Services, University of Leicester, Leicester LE1 7RH, United Kingdom For IT help contact helpdesk extn. 2253, <ithelp@le.ac.uk>

Have you tried
ldap { pool { start = 0 } }
Thanks, don't know how I missed this - seems to work nicely. Cheers, Jonathan -- Jonathan Gazeley Senior Systems Administrator IT Services University of Bristol
