My testing revealed that it does not work. Maybe it is because I am not using mysql ? I am using unixODBC/freetds, wonder if that matters. > That's a bad design.

But I managed to compile the program radsqlrelay, it is a command line tool but how am I going to tell it all those configuration in radius.conf and sql.conf ? Do you mean to say I just leave out the sql in the accouting section , but still include the file sql.conf in the radius.conf and then it will know how to obtain other information such as connection configuration ? - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
