First, let me point out that CENTOS 8 and CENTOS is going away. Until I get my licensed copy of RHEL 8.X I am using a VM with CENTOS 8 to practice this install on. Now I have rebuilt the VM now 3 times since I cannot seem to get Free Radius working correctly. I will try to post the correct files for you to review. I have followed the following website and YouTube page for two of the installations... but have the same issues, so it has to be something I am doing or overlooking (https://computingforgeeks.com/install-freeradius-and-daloradius-on-centos-rhel-8/cd etcdnf -y in &
). I think the biggest thing that irks me is that I do every step without a single error... until I start the radiusd service. When I do on all three tries I get the following error:
When I run the
command I get two different errors (one from Root and the other from a sudo account) the "root" error is dealing with looks like my SSL certs and the SUDO user looks to be a rights issue for the "/etc/raddb/radiusd.conf" file. I have followed every step and with NO ERRORS until I start radiusd... so I am very confused. I believe there is something being left out of these install instructions - BUT what?
So I am stuck until I can figure this one out. I figured maybe some extra set of eyes can see something I am completely overlooking. Any suggestions are welcomed.
