Typically, a RADIUS server would authicatate against a LDAP server, not a relational database like Oracle.

Next, RADIUS is going to track stuff like successful/failed logins and NOT what the user is actually doing on the system. It would be much easier to install the accounting package that comes with Red Hat 9. This package is called psacct and can be found on rpmfind.net.

You say you've installed 'a free radius server'. Which one? There are many.

Most will have their own documentation on how to back-end them.
