Hello All,
I'm looking for information on what others have done in similar situations. What i have to do is copy the accounting packets from one particular NAS device to another radius server. I know i can use radrelay for this if i copy all the accounting packets from that NAS device into one file but here is my dilemma.
I am flat filing all accounting packets from the different NAS devices
by IP then by date. Then once a day, i copy all these into a database
for accounting/billing purposes. (yes i realize this is a little
clunky but i lose almost no data this way, and the overall system
runs faster, and i have a guaranteed backup if my database takes a
major nosedive for the trashcan and the normal database backups fail
as well)
To add to the fun, I'm about to have to start forwarding all (from all
NAS devices) accounting packets to a web content filtering system. So I suppose the question is, will there be a problem running two
sets of radrelay (one on all accounting packets, and one on
accounting packets from just one NAS)? or is there a better way to do
this and I'm just being blind?
Never let more than 1 radrelay process the same logfile!
For each radrelay, you should configure a seperate rlm_detail instance, which logs the needed packets to a different logfile which radrelay can read from.
So for your situation, you need 3 rlm_detail instances: - 1 to log all requests to seperate logfiles based on source ip and time - 1 to log all requests to a single logfile - 1 to log requests from a particular NAS to a single logfile
