Hello List,
I would like to know if it is possible to setup FreeRAIUS not to log
accounting info from a specific server to the detail file and still log
the accounting info into the local mysql database.
Some background on the subject:
I have recently taken over the maintenance of a couple of FreeRADIUS
servers. I'll be frank, I am not an experienced FreeRADIUS admin, so my
first priority was to get the accounting information synced at all times
between our servers. After some searching I found a couple of documents
and posts about radrelay and I have proceeded to set it up on the
servers hoping to achieve a two-way accounting replication service.
+-----------+
+-----------+
| Primary | <===================== | Secondary |
| RADIUS | =====================> | RADIUS |
+-----------+
+-----------+
As the documentation is quite brief - I assume everything is working
fine. I kept my eye on the logs and started to see the following appearing.
Wed Sep 27 17:37:45 2006 : Info: rlm_radutmp: Login entry for NAS <1>
port 1090715896 duplicate
Wed Sep 27 17:37:46 2006 : Info: rlm_radutmp: Login entry for NAS <1>
port 1090716313 duplicate
(Also please note that I am aware of record duplication coming from my
upstream provider's RADIUS proxy)
When I killed radrelay on the Secondary then everything was OK except I
now only have a one-way replication happening. Looking at the sql tables
showed that there are about double the amount of records on the primary
then on the secondary for that time period.
As I have little experience on configuring FreeRadius (We all have to
start somewhere), I would greatly appreciate the any help or comments
about the subject at hand.
Thank you.
