Hi, sincerely need help here!!
I hv a Redhat Linux server.
I would like the server to work as DHCP server and FreeRadius server.

My questions:
1. how do I enable DHCP in the Redhat Linux server? I checked at the services, but dhcpd is not there?

2. how do I install FreeRadius to the server? Do I need to download the FreeRadius from somewhere and run some command? Anyone can show me where to download and what command to execute?

Thank you very much.
 
Hi, no one can help?

I believe I hv to install the dhcp server and freeradius application?
My Redhat Linux has the current version:

[root@wmxlnx1 ~]# uname -a
Linux wmxlnx1.motowimax.p1.com.my 2.6.9-5.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 19:30:39 EST 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

[root@wmxlnx1 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant)
[root@wmxlnx1 ~]#

So, can someone pls help to let me know if the following rpm is correct?

dhcp-3.0pl1-9.src.rpm

And which FreeRadius 1.1.7 I shld use?

freeradius-1.1.7-3.1.fc8.src.rpm
OR
freeradius-1.1.7-3.1.fc7.src.rpm

Appreciate all help. Thank you.


 
You don't want to install source RPMs (.src.rpm), unless you really know that's what you want.

Look on your original installation CD, you should find dhcp-3.0.1-59.EL4.x86_64.rpm and freeradius-1.0.1-3.RHEL4.5.x86_64.rpm.

Annihilannic.
