I have used apt-get for the freeradius and it installs it, but if I issue
the radiusd -X command it comes back and says it can't find command. Yet,
if I do locate, it finds it. apt-get says it's install, this is all before
I downloaded the source file. Ubuntu is got me confused on this one. Also,
if I try to remove it, it errors out and says exit on 127.

Just to re-cap...
When running a Linux Distribution w/ strong package management support
(which is almost any and all current distros) you should avoid building
software from source.
In this instance, if there were significant features missing in the
1.1.13version then you might have a case for building from source. Otherwise,
I'd
use the prepackaged version.
Also, if your wiling to build a program from sourcean thenb you might want
to consider becoming a package maintainer... You're already 80 percent
there...

What's your distro? Can apt/yum/etc. help with these issues? I'm
checking in Unbuntu's repositories and freeradius is there at 1.1.3.
As for your ln command.... that's just creating a hard link to that file
to your current directory. Were you in the directory where you were
attempting to compile?
Can you please post the actual error you're getting, or even better, tee
the output of your make to a file to attach?
