Hi all,
I'm trying to solve the following problem. Our radiator proxies
authentication requests. Upon receiving the response from the remote radius
server, we want to add an user-specific IP-address from our own SQL table.
I'm considering the following approach:
<AuthBy Group>
Identifier proxy
AuthByPolicy ContinueWhileAccept
<AuthBy Radius>
Host ...
....
</AuthBy>
<AuthBy SQL>
DBSource dbi:mysql:radius
DBUsername ...
DBAuth ...
AuthSelect select ipaddress from tblAccess where
username='%u'
AuthColumnDef 0, GENERIC, reply
</AuthBy>
</AuthBy>
However, due to the asynchronous behavior of AuthBy Radius this won't work.

I'm a bit reluctant to use the Synchronous parameter, since we cannot really
trust the remote radius server.
Another solution could be using a ReplyHook. However, this seems a bit
cumbersome to me; writing a failure-back-off-fall-back procedure to multiple
SQL-servers myself, while it is so nicely implemented in Radiators AuthBy
SQL.
Does anybody has a suggestion to overcome this problem?
Cheers,
Alexander
