enabling syslog service in freeradius-1.1.1

[sumi]

Hey Alan,

Thank you so much for your kind reply.

But, im not able to figure-out the correct configuration.

I am using the default radiusd.conf file.

Please let me know which config item needs to be changed for the same.

Awaiting for your reply.

Thanks
Sumi
