Environment


Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10
Novell SUSE Linux Professional 9.2
Novell SUSE Linux Personal 9.2
Novell SUSE Linux Desktop 1.0
Novell ConsoleOne 1.3.6
Novell BorderManager 3.8

Situation

When attempting to modify properties of the Dial-Access System or Dial-Access Profile objects in Linux using ConsoleOne, ConsoleOne freezes, and must be closed with a TERM or a -9 signal.

Resolution

The snap-ins for ConsoleOne are looking for a specific file when ConsoleOne loads. This loads the various RADIUS attribute definitions for the RADIUS configuration. In Linux, the file system is case-sensitive, and the installed file does not match the file that the snap-in is checking for. To fix the hang, rename the file "/usr/ConsoleOne/bin/Radius.atr" to lowercase using the command :
mv /usr/ConsoleOne/bin/Radius.atr /usr/ConsoleOne/bin/radius.atr
Then restart ConsoleOne.
