Although 2.1.8 is availible as a lenny backport for debian, I get the feeling that your suggestion is to stick with distribution packages whenever possible. Supposing I wanted to use the debian package to install 2.1.8 onto my ubuntu system the following (taken from http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-pkg_basics.en.html) should do the trick, correct? $dpkg-source -x foo_version-revision.dsc $cd foo-version $dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b $dpkg -i ../foo_version-revision_arch.deb > > > > > I would like to know if the > > > following outline would install freeradius with support for SSL on my > > > server.

I'm not a firm believer in 'version 1' software and generally avoid getting new distro-upgrades the day they come out. However since 10.04 is a long-term-support I may consider installing it. Do you think that re-installing the OS is worth it in this case, or will I be fine running the above and building it from source? > - > List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
