Sorry I'm new to Linux and FreeRadius. From the looks of it I'm assuming I need to create my own script in the /etc/init.d/ directory. Am I correct? Please help.
The path of least resistance is to install the freeradius package provided by your distribution (e.g. debian, suse, fedora, RHEL, CentOS, etc.). The purpose of these distribution specific packages is so all the distribution specific issues are taken care of by the packager for the distribution freeing you from having to learn and apply all the distribution specific issues. The only reason not to install a distribution specific package is if the distribution does not have a current version of freeradius available.
Since I presume you built and installed from source you can find example init scripts in the debian, suse, and redhat subdirectories. Just be aware of bit rot as I don't think the files in these distribution specific directories is regularly maintained, but it will certainly get you started if you feel the need to "roll your own" as opposed to using what your distribution provides.
