Hi Oliver.
There are a number of problems with your config that are causing it to not
produce the result you expect:
1. You have your Session-Timeout=30 as a check item. It should be a reply item
(its something that gets sent back to the NAS, if the user auths OK)
2. You are using AuthByPolicy ContinueUntilAccept. That means that as soon as
your AuthBy UNIX succeeds, Radiator will not continue on to look at your AuthBy
FILE clauses.
I would suggest instead that you use something like this:
<Realm DEFAULT>
RewriteUsername s/^([^@]+).*/$1/
AcctLogFileName %L/detail
AuthByPolicy ContinueUntilAccept
<AuthBy SQL>
# AS you have it already, so it doesnt do auth
</AuthBy>
<AuthBy FILE>
Filename xyzzy
</AuthBy>
</Realm>
# This is used to authenticate when you have Auth-Type=System
<AuthBy UNIX>
Identifier System
</AuthBy>
and in your xyzzy file:
DEFAULT AuthType=System,Group=nodup,Simultaneous-Use=1
Session-Timeout=30
The result of this should be:
1. for authentication, SQL will do nothing, it will then hit FILE, which will
then auth them with UNIX (and will check their password, group and sim-use
limit). If UNIX auths them OK, it will add the Session-Timeout and accept them
2. For accounting it will hit SQL, save the accounting data and acknowledge
immediately.
Hope that helps.
Cheers.
