I was taking about variable in the struct value_pair ( libradius.h ). >> What can I do to increase the limit without crashing the freeradius >> functions.

Use Acct-Input-GigiWords Okay - but I suppose I will have to patch my NAS ( Poptop server ) to use Acct-Input-GigaWords and Output- instead of Octets. Still if I patch my NAS to send GigaWords.. when I use sqlcounter to count the MBs I will still not be able to compare the check-name which is written into uint32 variable. Shouldn't this be patched too ( I am not a professional programmer - so excuse my "silly" question ). >> PS: the patched freeradius is working and is able to account traffic, but >I >> think it would not be RFC compliant because I haven't found the needed >> attributes in the dictionaries > > Which attributes? Poptop server accepts Session-Octets-Limit for the traffic limit ( actually it is ppp that is doing the limiting ). So Ive added this attribute to my dictionary. PPP also needs Octets-Direction so it can know which traffic flow to count. Ive added both attributes and it is working ( for 2^32 ). Can you give me some directives how to implement this. Maybe to extend the config of sqlcounter and value_pair struct? Thank you in advance > > Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
