Hi,
I have a couple of questions about accounting...
1) As I mentioned in a previous question, I'm writing a new EAP type.
To support the accounting procedure we want to use, I may need to
return Access-Accept with a Class or Vendor-Specific attribute. Could
you advise me how to do this from with rlm_eap framework? The data to
include in the attribute will be obtained from another system by my new
rlm_eap_newType module. My guess is that somehow rlm_eap_newType needs
to pass this back up to whatever routine finally builds the RADIUS
message. (My first thought was eap_authenticate/eap_compose, but theyre
obviuosly for the EAP attribute only. I would need to go up one more
level.)
2) My second question concerns how to process the incoming accounting
data from the client. I have not studied accounting as much as
authentication, so I'm a little rusty. From radiusd.conf it appears
that accounting is an RLM module, but I don't see an rlm_acct in the
modules directory. I looked through src/main/acct.c and found the
rad_accounting() function that looks to be where everything happens,
along with the stuff in modules.c. When accounting data comes in
(including Class or Vendor-Specific attributes) I'll need to parse it
and send it to a backend system, but I'm not sure where to put that code.
Thanks for any help you might have,
Dave
