RADIUS server is not responding

OK get the problem solved and I’ll gladly tell you what the problem was.

Investigate in several forums and I did not get anything specific with respect to freeradius and I happened to start the service in debug mode with this “freeradius -X” to see what information I could submit and the result was the following:

Root @ Sirius: / etc / freeradius # freeradius -X

Errors reading /etc/freeradius/radiusd.conf

After seeing the result and realize that it did not work for something as basic as the permissions of the folder … PLEASE !! Hahaha.

The solution was as simple as:

Root @ Sirius: / etc / freeradius # chmod 774 -R / var / www / splynx / config *

This after doing a clean installation of ubuntu server with webmin.
At least I have the experience and know that I do not touch the permissions to the folder of splynx jejeje

Well thank you very much for your help

Happy New Year!!!
