https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=461998 Summary: freeradius-server /etc/raddb/certs/ permission problems Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: gapinski@nasa.gov QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Community User freeradius-server fails to start (just after installation with default configuration) because it cannot create files in the /etc/raddb/certs directory. Running radiusd -X will illustrate the problem. The server attempts /etc/raddb/certs/bootstrap but this fails because it has already changed to user:group radiusd:radiusd, which lacks write access to /etc/raddb/certs. If /etc/raddb/certs/bootstrap is manually run by the root user, as suggested in /etc/raddb/certs/README, the resulting files are not readable by radiusd. To avoid the problem, the files can be created using /etc/raddb/certs/bootstrap followed by a chgrp radiusd /etc/raddb/certs/*. /etc/raddb/certs/Makefile should probably be changed to ensure correct permissions, or perhaps /etc/raddb/certs changed to be writeable by radiusd group. The problem is present as well in freeradius-server in openSUSE 11.1. RPM version used was freeradius-server-2.0.5-8.3. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
