Option 1: use combination of unlang (to select accounting packet type)
and rlm_exec (see modules/echo for example). This way the perl script
will be treated just like any other executable (not using rlm_perl, I
know, but some people might find it simpler)
Option 2: use rlm_perl, read modules/perl. You need to know about
creating functions in perl. Some snippet from that file:
...
# The following hashes are given to the module and
# filled with value-pairs (Attribute names and values)
#
# %RAD_CHECK Check items
# %RAD_REQUEST Attributes from the request
# %RAD_REPLY Attributes for the reply
...
#
# List of functions in the module to call.
# Uncomment and change if you want to use function
# names other than the defaults.
#
#func_authenticate = authenticate
#func_authorize = authorize
#func_preacct = preacct
#func_accounting = accounting
...
The function assigned to func_accounting should then be able to
differentiate whether it's an accounting stop or interim-update by
looking at values on %RAD_REQUEST.
