Compile problems

[David Blood]

I wish what you said was true. I see that in Make.inc sysconfdir is set to /etc.  Great.  The problem is when I run radius -X after installing.  It says it is looking for the config files in /usr/local/etc/raddb.  I can use radiusd -Xd /etc/raddb  and things work fine.  The problem is making radiusd look in the right place without using the -d setting.


# radiusd -X

Errors reading /usr/local/etc/raddb: No such file or directory


man radiusd tells me the config files are in /etc/raddb
the make install output tells me it put(rather tried to put) the config files in /etc/raddb

radiusd is just not looking for the config files in /etc/raddb.  Rather in /usr/local/etc/raddb
