Stopping and Starting the RADIUS Daemon

After the RADIUS daemon is installed on the server, it stops and starts
automatically each time you shut down or restart the server. You can stop the
RADIUS daemon on a Linux server at any time by issuing the following
command:

/etc/init.d/sbrd stop

When you execute the

sbrd stop

command, RSA RADIUS Server allows its

subsystems to complete outstanding work, release resources, and then stops the

mkded

(btrieve) daemon and the

radius

service gracefully.

If the RADIUS daemon fails to stop after you issue an

sbrd stop

command,

you can use the optional

force

argument to terminate all subsystems

immediately.

/etc/init.d/sbrd stop force

Use the following command to start the RADIUS daemon:

/etc/init.d/sbrd start
