Hello, I am a new FreeRADIUS user. The server is working for us. However, I am wondering why it won't start if I comment out the includes for clients.conf and proxy.conf. Even setting to debug level 3 doesn't tell me why. We are not proxying, and I have proxying turned off. Also, the clients file is almost completely commented out except for the 127.0.0.1 section, which the directions say should be commented out anyway after testing. Thanks in advance, Cliff
Hello, how do you except the server to work if he doesn't know which clients are allowed to use it? Commenting out the proxy.conf should not affect the server if you do not need proxy features.

Hi,

we have faced this same issue with clients.conf - which is a little weird if you have all your clients defined in a NAS database you shouldnt need the file. removing extraneous files is a handy way of elimating excess baggage (everyone should be deleting clients and naslist too of course) alan
Oops. I forgot to mention that I am using MySQL and have all my client data in the nas table and attributes in the radgroupreply table.

Hi,
Also, the clients file is almost completely commented out except for the 127.0.0.1 section, which the directions say should be commented out anyway after testing.
just tested behaviour in 2.0 CVS pre release. you dont need to have clients.conf - its a 1.1.x issue that you are seeing alan
Ok, thanks. But how about the include statement for proxy.conf? I have proxy set to No, but if I comment out the include statement, FreeRADIUS will not start. I am using MySQL database interface.

Presumably it prints out some kind of error message. What would that be? Alan DeKok. -- http://deployingradius.com - The web site of the book http://deployingradius.com/blog/ - The blog

with the absent clients.conf file, FR just disappears - even with -X debug (1.1.3 of course) alan
Sorry. That's the first thing I looked for. Even with debug set to 3 I get no message. It says it is attempting to load the config files, then says FAILED. I am using Fedora, and to install all I did was: yum install freeradius.i386 yum install freeradius-unixODBC.i386 yum install freeradius-mysql.i386 So...I don't have the binary so I start it with: service radiusd start and no doubt I don't get the same feedback as if I were starting a binary.

I have 1.1.2, so I'll have to upgrade.

I cannot see such a problem with proxy.conf on either 1.1.3 or 2.0pre alan - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
