Setting up freeradius rlm_rest module

[chibwe kapambwe]

Hello Alan

Just to test my rest functionality on my freeradius server, i put a rest
config file in mods-enabled, and am getting this error
"/etc/freeradius/3.0/mods-enabled/rest[1]:
Failed to link to module 'rlm_rest': /usr/lib/freeradius/rlm_rest.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory " in my debug.
what am i missing?
