FreeRADIUS Version 0.7.1, for host i686-pc-linux-gnu.
Using MySQL for authentication and accounting.
I got the counter module set up and the proper entry in the radcheck table of the
database, and started sending accounting packets to my RADIUS server. I noticed the
following message from the log when I ran it with the -X option:
modcall[accounting]: module "counter" returns noop
Upon investigation, I determined that the NOOP was being returned from rlm_counter.c,
lines 406 and 407. Lines 402-411 are included for context:
/*
* Check if we need to watch out for a specific service-type. If yes then check it
*/
if (data->service_type != NULL) {
if ((proto_vp = pairfind(request->packet->vps, PW_SERVICE_TYPE)) == NULL)
return RLM_MODULE_NOOP;
if (proto_vp->lvalue != data->service_val)
return RLM_MODULE_NOOP;
}
The second if (if proto_vp = pairfind ...) was returning true and RLM_MODULE_NOOP was
being returned by the module. I printed out the value of data->service_type, and it
was 'Framed-User'.
When I commented out all of the above lines, the counter module began working and
continues to work like a charm.
My questions:
1. What does the section that I commented out do?
2. Will this adversely affect anything?
3. I assume there should be a better way to make this work - can anyone tell me why it
wouldn't work before?
Below are the relevant bits of the conf file and the row from radcheck.
Thanks!

Row I added to radcheck in the MySQL database:
| 7 | awebb | Max-Daily-Session | 110 | := |
raduisd.conf important bits (I think this should suffice):
counter {
filename = ${raddbdir}/db.counter
key = User-Name
count-attribute = Acct-Session-Time
reset = daily
counter-name = Daily-Session-Time
check-name = Max-Daily-Session
allowed-servicetype = Framed-User
cache-size = 5000
}
