Thanks. I have added this to the list to check before next release.
Making startup scripts and RPMS universal seems to be an endless quest
from what I have seen :)

Good point. The locations are different. The script that comes with RPM
is currently the same as goodies/linux-radiator.init.

Running as non-root might be the reason why the pid file is in the log
directory by default. Permissions for log files have to match the user
radiusd runs on, so this makes the log dir very convenient place to have
the pid file too.
As an example, a quick look at Ubuntu 10.04 shows its /var/run is a
tmpfs and the startup scripts seem to need code to create the
subdirectry during every boot.
It's certainly possible to change to /var/run, but it is a bit hard to
say how difficult it is to do universally.

Thanks, I will make a note of that too.

Printing out the expected location might be useful here too.

Thanks again, Alex!
