Hello,

Just in case other people have this problem, I eventually discovered the 
problem I was having with no Radius packets being sent out from OpenSER (and 
indeed SER. After breaking out GDB and DDD and stepping through the code,
I found that the fopen(rc_conf_str(rh, "servers"), "r") in rc_find_server() in 
the radiusclient-ng library was failing.

A quick look at the permissions of the 'servers' config file for the 
radiusclient-ng and I it soon all became clear. Only root could read the 
file, not the openser user. D'oh!  :-) For some reason the error message 
wasn't being stored in the syslog for that.

Regards,

Matt Williams
