Hello Alex -
As mentioned previously, for testing you are much better off simply
running radiusd from the command line so you can see what is happening.
To use restartWrapper in an init script, the whole command must be
run in the background, but "radiusd" itself must be run in the
foreground attached to restartWrapper.
See section 15.1 in the Radiator 3.17.1 reference manual.
regards
Hugh
