After the changes are made in config files (user.conf), Radius server needs to be restarted. Is there any way that Radius server will fetch the changed configurations without restarting the Radius server?

The traditional technique is to send the process a HUP signal (most daemon work this way). In fact it's such a common control scenario most initscripts and/or other tools used to control system daemons support a "reload" command that does this for you (you don't have to know the pid). If your system supports reload it's the preferred method, if not send a HUP. With FreeRADIUS you can also do a reload from the admin console. -- John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com> Looking to carve out IT costs? www.redhat.com/carveoutcosts/
Hi,
"reload" command that does this for you (you don't have to know the pid). If your system supports reload it's the preferred method, if not send a HUP.
With FreeRADIUS you can also do a reload from the admin console.
its also another reason to use SQL for eg user/NAS stuff...as you dont need to reload the server. alan
