Hello Aaron -
There is a bit of a problem here because the SQL paramaters are dealt with
at Startup (or restart), so even if you put special formatting in them, they
won't take effect as expected. I think you might do better by specifying one
or more AcctSQLStatements, as they are passed to format_special for each
packet. Have a look at AuthSQL.pm to see what happens.
