pam_radius not using /etc/raddb/server
I have a client system that seems to be ignoring changes in the pam_radius config file, /etc/raddb/server. I initially configured the system with a simple shared secret and had it pointed to a test server and now when I change the file /etc/raddb/server the client still talks to the test server instead of the new freeradius server. I even added the test server IP address to the new freeradius server and verified that the client is even still using the old simple shared secret. I've gone as far as completely removing the /etc/raddb/server file and the client continues to use the previous config. What am I missing? The system has been rebooted numerous times. -- View this message in context: http://freeradius.1045715.n5.nabble.com/pam-radius-not-using-etc-raddb-serve...

It's likely that the configuration file for the pam_radius_auth module has been moved. Find out where it is, and edit that. If the module talks to the server when the config file doesn't exist, it's because it's using a different config file. Alan DeKok.
Thanks, Alan. I definitely suspected both of the things you suggest, but I initially installed this system and configured it, so I'm really confused as to how this alternate configuration came to be. I found the rogue configuration in the file /etc/pam_radius.conf . Unless I did that one evening after a few beers and just don't recall, I maintain that I didn't create the file. ;) Thanks again. -- View this message in context: http://freeradius.1045715.n5.nabble.com/pam-radius-not-using-etc-raddb-serve...
