More specific output helpful. Sounds like a $PATH issue... -----Original Message----- From: "Ken Allen" <kc8tdw@xxxxxxxxx> To: "ncolug@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <ncolug@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: 6/16/2007 12:32 AM Subject: [ncolug] Re: Help with Radius 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.
