[RADIATOR] Mac OS X Background Start UP

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Adam -

As I am not familiar with Snow Leopard Server I can't really answer definitively.

If FreeRadius is started by default you will need to disable it.

The Radiator instructions should be fine - if you discover anything different please let us know.

You configure Radiator via the configuration file for everything, including logging etc.

See section 5.4 in the Radiator 4.6 reference manual ("doc/ref.pdf").

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?
