Except I don't think that will test your db connection (if you have one). If you use radclient to do a full auth test, you get a better idea as to the status of the entire service instead of just the daemon. We use a check_radius Nagios script which I believe uses radclient. We also have a script that tails the radius log and pops those entries into another db for our CS ppl to look at and I know it is working correctly even if there is no traffic because I can see the Nagios check entries. -- Dennis Skinner Systems Administrator BlueFrog Internet http://www.bluefrog.com - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
