1 Answer

In *buntu:tail -f /var/log/freeradius/radius.log

Because the log contains information that should be kept secure, it is by default only readable by root.

You can also start the server in debug mode to get a lot more detail.

# freeradius -X

Before doing this, check to see if freeradius is already running (e.g. ps ax | fgrep freeradius). If it is running, stop it with service freeradius stop.

In debug mode with the -X switch, freeradius remains attached to the terminal so it can output detailed information via STDOUT on the terminal screen.

For extended detailed logging, you could nohup freeradius -X >/tmp/radius.log &.

Even more detailed logging is available with the -x and -xx switches.
