So what 'rest of the documentation' should I look at. I guess I am not seeing how I should know that the "auth_log" is a variant of the "detail" module.

I am hoping i can get a better understanding of the documentations so I would not have to ask questions in the future. So for this example I saw the following:

1. Note in changelog about suppress
2. Section under 'detail' in radiusd.conf file with supress option commented out.

So I now understand that I should be able to suppress information from any of the detail sections by adding an additional suppress line under that module subsection.

Is this something that I should have understood to start with or is there documentation that I did not see and should read?

Now the question is what example config file had the suppress stanza under
the detail auth_log section as well?  Mine just listed it under the detail
section so I did not know I needed to put it in both places.

  The rest of the documentation explains how the modules are set up.
The "auth_log" module is a variant of the "detail" module.  Nothing is
different except the name, and the options you put into it's
configuration.

you can, for example, do somthing like this in radiusd.conf

       # Write a detailed log of all accounting records received.
       #
       detail {
               #  Note that we do NOT use NAS-IP-Address here, as
               #  that attribute MAY BE from the originating NAS, and
               # blah blah blah
               detailfile = ${radacctdir}/%{Client-IP-Address}/detail-%Y%m%d

               detailperm = 0600
               suppress {
                        User-Password
               }

       }


        detail auth_log {
                detailfile = ${radacctdir}/%{Client-IP-Address}/auth-detail-%Y%
m%d

                detailperm = 0600
                suppress {
                        User-Password
               }

        }

its SO much easier if you read the example config files that come with the
new release as they often contain HOW to use a feature/option/argument :-)
