The format is a string where variables are expanded, just like the filename.
format = "%{User-Name} logged in from %{NAS-IP-Address} with %{NAS-Port}" ---------------- Alan, I am a little confused.. Even though my format is just this: format = "%{User-Name}" My log the contents of filename is: Packet-Type = Access-Request Thu Feb 17 14:18:39 2005 User-Name = "aweaver" User-Password = "1234" NAS-IP-Address = 209.190.0.72 Client-IP-Address = 209.190.0.72 Stripped-User-Name = "aweaver" Realm = "NULL" Realm = "NULL" Proxy-State = 0x34 Any clues? -Drew - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
