Hi Everyone I am rather new to this, so I hope I am not asking something obvious.
I am attempting to build an RPM from source on my FC5 box. The reason is that I am wanting to use hotcakes (a wifi administration app) and it requires 1.1.4 minimum and the latest stable for FC5 is 1.0.5 What I am actually wanting to achieve is a Freeradius install on my FC5 box that puts everything where I am expecting to find them on my FC5 box. I thought building an RPM from source was the idea, but there may be others I am unaware of. My issue is that I am wanting mysql (on separate server) support built into freeradius, but I can't find any information on how that is done within the spec file. Note: This install of freeradius is on a standalone machine, it will have nothing else but freeradius on it. Any thoughts or comments on where I can find the information I need would be most helpful. This is how I am trying to do it so far: $ cd ~ $ cp -a /usr/src/redhat/ rpmbuild $ echo '%_topdir %(echo $HOME)/rpmbuild' >> .rpmmacros $ wget ftp://ftp.freeradius.org/pub/radius/freeradius-1.1.7.tar.gz $ cp freeradius-1.1.7.tar.gz ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ $ tar zxf freeradius-1.1.7.tar.gz freeradius-1.1.7/redhat/freeradius.spec $ cp freeradius-1.1.7/redhat/freeradius.spec ~/rpmbuild/SPECS/ $ cd ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/i386 $ rpm -Uvh freeradius-1.1.7-0.i386.rpm No mods to the spec file (information required).
