Freeradius + MySQL At System Boot = Freeradius Failure

Do you use MySQL for NAS authentication? I have noticed that Freeradius can re-connect to the database for user authentication later in the process. However as NAS is only read during startup then if MySQL is not ready its understandable why Freeradius would bomb out.

same here... I never had similar problem when mysqld is started after 
radiusd

You should check your mysql logs to see is there any problem which 
causes slow start...
