fyi, You can also run separate instances with all pointing to a common config file, if that's simpler. That works if you can "override" everything instance-specific by using different command line arguments.
A single config file can be easier to manage if they will otherwise duplicate a lot of the same configuration details, hooks, etc. Dave -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gregory Fuller Sent: Thursday, October 07, 2010 10:42 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [RADIATOR] Multiple radiator instances on single server? I'd like to go through and separate out my authentication, accounting, and tacacsplus radiator configurations each into its own separate radiator instance on the same server. One radiator process would run just the radius authentication, one process for radius accounting, and one process for all tacacsplus auth/accounting. I'm running Radiator 4.5 under CentOS 5.4. I know I can start another process from the commad line and pass my different config files into it without any problems. Within the config files I have separated out the different parts of the config for each operation and made sure only the port #'s I want to listen on are listed in the configs. How are most places handling the running of multiple radiator instances on the same server using the standard RedHat/CentOS "services" functionalty? Did you copy and rename /etc/init.d/radiator for each one of the services and modify each service script to load different config files on startup? Just trying to figure out the best way to manage this. I'd like to be able to do something like the following: For radius authentication: service radiator start For radius accounting: service radiator-acct start For tacacs auth/accounting: service radiator-tacacs start Any sample RedHat/CentOS service config files for doing this would be appreciated also.
