These +files are in a format different from the one used by the main +`radiusd.conf` files. Earlier versions of the server had many +module-specific files in the main `raddb` directory. The directory +contained many files, and it was not clear which files did what. + +For Version 3 of FreeRADIUS, we have moved to a consistent naming +scheme. Each module-specific configuration file is placed in this +directory, in a subdirectory named for the module. Where necessary, +files in the subdirectory have been named for the processing section +where they are used. + +For example, the `users` file is now located in +`mods-config/files/authorize`. That filename tells us three things: + +1. The file is used in the `authorize` section. +2. The file is used by the `files` module. +3. It is a "module configuration" file, which is a specific format. + |
