(RADIATOR) Mac OS X, MD5 and no internet access

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Oliver -

I will need to see a copy of your configuration file and a trace 4  
debug from Radiator showing what is happening.

It is most useful to run radiusd like this for testing so you can see  
any Perl error messages:

	cd /your/Radiator/distribution/directory

	perl radiusd -foreground -log_stdout -trace 4 -config_file /your/ 
configuration/file

hope that helps

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
