  What OS?  Where did you get the packages from?

  /opt/rad is not a normal installation location.

  The Makefile, and Make.inc control how the server is build.  All of the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS are defined there.

  If '-g' is in the CFLAGS, then the binaries are not stripped.

  Nothing in the default build strips the binaries of debugging symbols.
