Something I noticed whilst comparing the postgres and mysql rlm_sql configs
is that when postgres sets an AcctStartTime or AcctStopTime, it figures in
the delay time, whereas the mysql queries don't.

 

For example, in accounting_stop_query, postgres has:

 

AcctStopTime = (now() - '%{Acct-Delay-Time:-0}'::interval)

 

. whereas mysql just has:

 

AcctStopTime       = '%S'

 

Where %S is "request timestamp in SQL format".  Which should be pretty darn
close to now().

 

I presume this is just down to the personal preferences of whoever wrote the
two sets of queries?  Personally, I wouldn't expect the queries to apply the
delay time to the start/stop time, so the MySQL version is "correct".  IMHO
interpretation of the data should be left to the backend provisioning.

 

No biggie, just an observation.
