Hi all,
Does anyone out there have a working postgres backup/failover server working?

Previously I was using an early version of nfacctd with the recovery_logfile 
option in case our postgres server became unavailable.
However since that option has been removed, I'm trying to get the SQL host 
failover to work instead (with a backup postgresql server running on the local 
host).
The docs imply that it is as simple as declaring 'sql_recovery_backup_host', 
but no matter what I try - it either fails to try the backup host, or uses the 
primary address instead.
I've had a quick look through the code, and discovered there also seems to be a 
'sql_backup_host' option - but same result.


When using:
....
sql_host[national]: aa.bb.cc.122
sql_host[international]: aa.bb.cc.122
sql_backup_host[national]: 127.0.0.1
sql_backup_host[international]: 127.0.0.1
....
