Fair enough.. Perhaps I dropped the ball on my initial question. Looking back my homework was not done in the initial volley. However since then I've looked over the docs, faqs, debugging code, mailing list logs, etc. Only after this education process have I started to get erked.

 <shrug>  What gets me about open-source users are the people who:

- refuse to read the documentation

I have done this. If I resolve to rummage through the docs at least give me the luxury of having good clear docs to rumage around in. Thats the crux of my beef here.

- ask questions on the list

What else is the list for then? People present problems and they hopefully get resolved w/ the help of others.

- argue with the developers over the answers

Can really argue because I havn't gotten any useful info. Other the RTFM. Well RTFM does works when docs aren't clear or in this case outdated.

I'm at a total loss as to what your problem is.

That makes two of us.

The documentation
which comes with the server is sufficient to solve your problems.

We'll just have to disagree on that.

But
you refuse to read it, and get angry at me when I refuse to re-type
that documentation on the list.

Being a dev you can deal with a little grainer docs since you wrote the server. Users don't have that advantage. With that said I WILL make an effort to re-read, trawl, grep though, and look high and low for the docs/faqs/source code if need be you mention. Hopefully this'll get knocked out.

 Exactly.  I don't get paid to do this.  If you don't like my
attitude, then:

 a) follow my advice when you ask for it,

  or

 b) start your own open source RADIUS server

See original comment about developers. All I'm saying is programming and writing good/complete docs are related but ultimatly two seperate skills. Just hard to get a good combination of both.

<sigh> 'raddb/radiusd.conf' comes with examples of using the
'counter' module. If you can't understand that, how can I expect that
you'll understand my answers on this list?

Yes - sigh for me to..

I HAVE looked in the radiusd.conf file and have added, tinkered, modified, read, re-read, counter module instances, bent spoons using my chi over this, so on and so forth. No dice.

We'll just have to file this under un-resolved. I'll keep plugging along on this.
