Likewise we have CentOS 5.2 servers, but have rebuilt FR 5.0.1 from the
source RPM from a Fedora 10 mirror. For that just comment out the
'perl-devel' from the spec file, run 'rpmbuild -ba freeradius.spec',
then install the 'freeradius', 'freeradius-libs' and 'freeradius-utils'
RPMs. It works fine.
