The only sane way to do this on a single box would be by installing a
hypervisor on the server ( such as VMware ESXi) and running pfsense as
a virtual machine within it as well as a second virtual machine to
host any other non-firewall related applications (MySQL, FreeRADIUS).

There is obviously going to be a performance hit from sharing the
resources but should be minimal if all you are doing is hosting a user
database and RADIUS server for pfSense.



While it may not be the most clever idea, technically it should be possible, right?

I'm not too familiar with the inner workings of pfSense - but I assume there is a partition or directory in the installation that (provided pfSense is installed on a HD and not a read-only medium) persists data over reboots.

One would need to start it with that directory as dbdir.

It's possible to run Snort, haproxy. So, why not MySQL?

OP will have to learn how to create packages, and store the configuration:
