FreeRADIUS is an open-source RADIUS server that provides authentication, authorization, and accounting services. In this tutorial, we will explain how to install FreeRADIUS on Void Linux.
Before you start, you will need:
First, update the system with the following command:
sudo xbps-install -Syu
This command will download and install the latest updates for your system.
To install FreeRADIUS, run the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S freeradius
This command will install FreeRADIUS and all its dependencies.
The default configuration file for FreeRADIUS is located at /etc/raddb directory. You can edit this file to configure the server according to your needs.
To start FreeRADIUS, run the following command:
sudo service freeradius start
This command will start the FreeRADIUS service.
To verify the installation, run the following command:
sudo systemctl status freeradius
This command will display the status of the FreeRADIUS service. If the service is running, it should display a message indicating that it is active.
That's it! You have successfully installed FreeRADIUS on Void Linux. You can now configure the server to provide authentication, authorization, and accounting services to your network.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
