Fellow OpenSER users:

We have been using SER at our VoIP company for a few years now and have been running in to security issues.  We are pleased to see someone has taken improving SER seriously and are trying to move to OpenSER but are having problems with the implementation we need: OpenSER with Radius Accounting and Radius Authentication (with freeradius and MySQL).

I compiled the latest stable version of openser on an FC1 Linux PC with the needed modules added for Radius Authentication and Accounting.  I am also using the latest version of freeradius.

I have spent plenty of time in the email archives and documentation before asking you for help.
I seemed to have everything installed correctly after adding the line 'modparam("auth_radius", "radius_config", "/usr/local/etc/radiusclient-ng/radiusclient.conf")' to the default openser config file.  All the radius modules seem to load now and openser doesn't exit with any errors.  But when I start openser and check "ps -eaf | grep openser" it isn't running so I assume.  Here are the last few lines of /var/log/messages:


I tried adding verbosity to the debug "-ddddd" but didn't get any more information than the logs above.
I have also all ready included the needed dictionary file from openser for freeradius in the freeradius dictionary config.

Here is my current config under modules loading for auth (only change to default config besides modparam above):
# Uncomment this if you want digest authentication
# mysql.so must be loaded !
loadmodule "/usr/local/lib/openser/modules/auth.so"
#loadmodule "/usr/local/lib/openser/modules/auth_db.so"
loadmodule "/usr/local/lib/openser/modules/auth_radius.so"
#loadmodule "/usr/local/lib/openser/modules/group_radius.so"
#loadmodule "/usr/local/lib/openser/modules/uri_radius.so"

Please let me know what else I can try to get this working.  Some kind of walk thru for the freeradius configuration would be helpful as well (freeradius with MySQL).
