you will need to ensure that you create a .tar.gz file that contains all of your files as changed. ie untar a native freeradius-server-2.0.0.tar.gz then into that directory, copy all of the files you've edited and plyed with. then ensure that if dictionaries are named in the Makefile for install - then add yours to those little files too. then take the required spec file and on a 3rd party system, copy that tar file into the SOURCES location and run rpmbuild on the spec file. if you have problems, then get the latest spec file from CVS version of freeradius - or check the archives of this mailing list and grab the working copy i posted about a week ago. et voila. your own custom RPM version. now just update it all to work with 2.0.3 will you please? :-) alan - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
