To hop back to this question, updating to the latest CVS made
user_finger.php3 behave quite a bit differently.
Now when I go to that page, I get a listing for every NAS from the
database, but there is no information for the NAS unless there is also
information in naslist.conf
Shouldn't it just use the information from SQL if the nas table is
there, and completely ignore/not use naslist.conf? It seems a little
redundant to put the information into two locations.
*shrug* maybe I'm just doing something wrong? That's pretty likely ;)
Another odd thing is that on nas_admin.php3, all my NAS's are showing
type "other" in the dropdown, though they are set for various things in
the database (including: other, max40xx, and usrhiper). When I try to
modify the setting through dialup_admin, it doesn't change in the
dropdown, but it does change in the database. Seems like the dropdown
isn't reading properly.
Also executing "Check NAS validity" fails for every NAS, I looked at the
PHP and it's trying to do "gethostbyname($selected_nas), where the name
is an IP address. Is that why it's failing, because I used IP's instead
of hostnames? Maybe that factors in to why user_finger.php3 is doing
funky stuff?
