I worked it out for myself - syslog doesnt work :( If you set -l syslog, it gets stored in radlog_dir , and works for the startup log, but then gets clobbered by the configuration file stuff setting radlog_dir to /var/log/radius (for radwtmp etc) and losing the fact that you want to use syslog :( It probably needs a separate global variable ... I've fixed it for myself temporarily by hard coding it into log.c ..... Lance - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
