Hi all, This is probably a very simple question, but for the life of me I have not been able to locate a solution. I am running a RADIUS server on OpenBSD 5.5 stable (+ openssl patches) using FreeRADIUS 2.2.0p2 from the ports tree. When I first installed FreeRADIUS, it worked great. However, when I rebooted the system, radiusd would no longer start. I discovered the run_dir of /var/lrun/radiusd, which houses the PID file and socket, was missing. I re-created the directory and changed its ownership to _freeradius. After that, it started working again. But whenever the system reboots, the entire /var/run/radiusd directory gets deleted somehow.
The only references I could find regarding this happening with OpenBSD was on a blog, where the recommendation was simply to manually re-create the directory. There must be something I am missing here, and I feel like it’s probably quite simple. Does anybody know what I need to do in order to prevent the run dir from being deleted, or know if there is a better location for it where it won’t be automatically deleted when the system reboots? Thanks in advance for any help, it is much appreciated and OpenBSD rocks! Warm regards, Andrew
