Yes, i noticed that to. But creating that dir didn't solve the problem.
I did a quick re-install of freeradius through apt-get and everything is ok
now.
Though i think i still get authenticated through the users file and i want
it to be done through mysql
I don't get it how to accomplish this. I created the radius db and set up
the necessary tables,
made the changes in the conf files to so the accounting and authorizing goes
through mysql.
But how do you add your users to mysql? manually, i guess/hope not?


tnx
