RE: (RADIATOR) How to detect used AuthBy while processing Accounting

[Frank Danielson]

You could return a value in the Class attribute during the AuthBy and then have a Handler use that value to do the Accounting. Something like this:

 

# Authentications

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier auth1

    AddToReply Class="auth1"

</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier auth2

    AddToReply Class="auth2"

</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier auth3

    AddToReply Class="auth2"

</AuthBy>

 

# Accounting

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier acct1

</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier acct2

</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier acct3

</AuthBy>

 

# Handlers

<Handler Request-Type = Accounting-Request, Class = auth1>

    AuthBy acct1
</Handler>

 

<Handler Request-Type = Accounting-Request, Class = auth1>

    AuthBy acct1
</Handler>

 

<Handler>
    AuthByPolicy ContinueUntilAccept
    AuthBy auth1
    AuthBy auth2
    AuthBy auth3
</Handler>

Subject: (RADIATOR) How to detect used AuthBy while processing Accounting

Hello,

 

I need to authenticate users from different databases without using a realm, or anything else that could differenciate when a user exists in two databases... So I use three AuthBy sentences for authentication expecting that a user will authenticate if his pair username/password matches one of the databases (the first one taht matches).

 

This works Ok for authentication, and users with the same username can login no matter what database are coming from, however, I need a similar behavior for accounting processing, I mean, if user was authenticated using identifier auth2, its accounting records must go to acct2, but it doesn't work that fine, It seems like accounting handler can`t differenciate what authentication mehtod was used to authenticate, son depending on the authpolicy used in the accounting handlers, it will store record in the first database or in they all, and that's pretty far from what I want...

 

Any idea?

 

This is the escenario

 

 

 # Authentications

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier auth1

</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier auth2

</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier auth3

</AuthBy>

 

# Accounting

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier acct1

</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier acct2

</AuthBy>

<AuthBy SQL>

    Identifier acct3

</AuthBy>

 

# Handlers

<Handler Request-Type = Accounting-Request>
    AuthByPolicy ContinueAlways

    AuthBy acct1
    AuthBy acct2
    AuthBy acct3
</Handler>

 

<Handler>
    AuthByPolicy ContinueUntilAccept
    AuthBy auth1
    AuthBy auth2
    AuthBy auth3
</Handler>
