Information about each NAS is stored in SQL database. All scripts supporting
that large ISP are total size of 10KB. Not a lot of work at least for me.
Anyway, I have another question: After upgrading 0.5 to 0.8 I have kept all
configuration files. First there was an error reported about acct_users,
some error with syntax ?! I have fixed it by editing the file and saving it.
Most important thing for me is that users whose accounts are in external
password/shadow files are not allowed access anymore with reason: Access
denied (external check failed).
(please keep in mind that this configuration works with 0.5 for 7 months)
Users file is as follows:
marty Auth-Type := System
Fall-Through = 1
[lots of old accounts not included in SQL db]
DEFAULT
Service-Type = Framed-User,
Framed-Protocol = PPP,
Framed-MTU = 1500,
Framed-Routing = 0,
Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP,
Idle-Timeout = 3600,
Exec-Program-Wait = "/usr/local/icard/auth-start %u %n
%{Called-Station-Id}",
Fall-Through = 1
Maybe there is something changed in 0.8 I am not aware of?
shadow, password and group files location is described in unix {} module of
radiusd.conf
server is RedHat 7.x (or something similar :>), MySQL 3.23.49a (which is not
important regarding this question).
Please advise.
PS. Alan, I choosed billing in realtime because this it's more accurate
handling sesions which cover more than one time zone and reduces the
possibility of data loss (hardware failure, etc.)
