Wimax module with Freeradius 2.1.8 on Ubuntu
Hi, I am using ubuntu and wanted to install freeradius. After installing the default unbuntu version of freeradius, I realised that it does not support WiMAX. I then removed the old version, downloaded the latest version of freeradius (2.1.8) and built my own package according to the build instructions on the freeradius Wiki. This did not appear to build the wimax portions as freeradius crashed stating it could not find the shared rlm_wimax.so file (when I ran the server with wimax eneabled in the defaults file. I built this file myself and linked it into the directory where all the other freeradius libraries go. This allowed me to start freeradius, but on the first authentication request, I get a segmentation fault. I attempted to recompile from source using ./configure -with-experimental-modules and make. Unfortunately this too failed to compile the WiMAX module. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong here? Thanks for the help! __________________________________________________________ Joel Lindsay

See doc/bugs My guess is that you have multiple versions of the server installed. Fix that.

So... what does the configure / make output say? It's *not* hard to read it. There's a lot of text, but looking for "wimax" should narrow it down to 30-40 lines, which are easy to understand. Alan DeKok.
Actually I have seen this issue on Ubuntu myself. In the source code there is a file which references "stable" modules. I found it necessary to edit that file and add rlm_wimax in order to have the wimax module compiled.
