Re: Freeradius start at boot
So I have gone through all the responses and will post everything asked for here. My user account is not in the sudoers list, not sure how to add it and not sure if this is a problem since I use "su" and then issued the sudo commands. When I log into the box as a user, not root, radiusd auto starts, but does not start, until I log in as a user. service radiusd status radiusd (pid 1444) is running... /var/log/radius/radius.log Thu Oct 1 08:44:52 2009 : Info: Loaded virtual server inner-tunnel Thu Oct 1 08:44:52 2009 : Info: Loaded virtual server <default> Thu Oct 1 08:44:52 2009 : Error: Failed binding to authentication address * port 1812: Address already in use Thu Oct 1 08:44:52 2009 : Error: /etc/raddb/radiusd.conf[240]: Error binding to port for 0.0.0.0 port 1812 Thu Oct 1 08:44:58 2009 : Info: Loaded virtual server inner-tunnel Thu Oct 1 08:44:58 2009 : Info: Loaded virtual server <default> Thu Oct 1 08:44:58 2009 : Error: Failed binding to authentication address * port 1812: Address already in use Thu Oct 1 08:44:58 2009 : Error: /etc/raddb/radiusd.conf[240]: Error binding to port for 0.0.0.0 port 1812 Thu Oct 1 08:45:03 2009 : Info: Exiting normally.

Sounds like something is already using the port. You need to find out what it is and stop it. Check /etc/rc.d/rc3.d and see if there are two links to radius servers. Could be the first one is being started and the second instance fails because the port was bound.
According to his email he did not stop the running daemon process prior to running the server in debug mode, that would explain the already bound port. -- John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com> Looking to carve out IT costs? www.redhat.com/carveoutcosts/

FWIW, it is pointless to use sudo when you're already root. sudo allows you to run a command as if you were root without actually being root. It's a much safer working methodology to log in as a normal user and only do things which require root privilege via sudo.
When I log into the box as a user, not root, radiusd auto starts, but does not start, until I log in as a user.
Then you've screwed something up. Please make sure you didn't add radius in some fashion (either as /usr/sbin/radiusd or as /etc/init.d/radiusd) to the desktop startup applications. To check this after you log into the account which autostarts radius goto this menu item: System --> Preferences --> Startup Applications and make sure radius is *not* in the list. Someone earlier suggested using Startup Applications and that suggest is *wrong*, please make sure you didn't do that.
service radiusd status radiusd (pid 1444) is running...
O.K. great. Now stop it by doing this: service radiusd stop it should report it's stopped but you can verify with service radiusd status Now that we know it's stopped we can verify that it should start at boot by doing this: service radiusd start Did it start? It should say OK. Verify it's still running by: service radiusd status Is it still running? If yes then it should start at boot provided it's enabled by chkconfig Why does the above test prove it should start? Because "service radiusd start" is exactly the command used to start it at boot time. BTW, having radiusd automatically start at boot time is known to work. -- John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com> Looking to carve out IT costs? www.redhat.com/carveoutcosts/
So I have gone through all the responses and will post everything asked for here.
My user account is not in the sudoers list, not sure how to add it and not sure if this is a problem since I use "su" and then issued the sudo commands.
When I log into the box as a user, not root, radiusd auto starts, but does not start, until I log in as a user.
So you say, but ...
service radiusd status radiusd (pid 1444) is running...
This says that radius is already running.

So does this.
Thu Oct 1 08:44:52 2009 : Error: /etc/raddb/radiusd.conf[240]: Error binding to port for 0.0.0.0 port 1812 Thu Oct 1 08:44:58 2009 : Info: Loaded virtual server inner-tunnel Thu Oct 1 08:44:58 2009 : Info: Loaded virtual server <default> Thu Oct 1 08:44:58 2009 : Error: Failed binding to authentication address * port 1812: Address already in use
And this.
radiusd -X ... Failed binding to authentication address * port 1812: Address already in use
And that. So, in essence you haven't got a faintest idea what is running on your machine and what isn't. All the info you gave us points to the fact that radiusd process *is* already running. Ivan Kalik Kalik Informatika ISP
