The issue is that the server was change to: - setuid to radiusd/radiusd - BUT remember "root" - start booting - switch back to root - open sockets (including ports < 1024) as root - when done opening sockets, switch back to radiusd/radiusd The issue is that the file "radiusd.sock" is now opened as root, and therefore some of the previous logic to check ownerships is wrong. I'll commit a fix to the "stable" tree tomorrow. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
