Re: (RADIATOR) Want to force a logoff at the end of a month
In the Access Accept step, send a Session-Timout with the remaining time until the end of the month.

You will have to write a PostAuthHook to calculate the value and add a Session-Timeout attribute with that value to the reply packet. You should beware of this however, as some NAS equipment will have trouble with large numeric values for Session-Timeout. YMMV. Is there a way I can configure radiator to dynamically set this attribute to return the end of the current month? A better way to deal with this problem may be to configure the NAS to send interim accounting packets (Accounting Alives), to periodically send updated accounting information. Many of our customers use this with services such as ADSL, semi-permanent ISDN, etc. hth Hugh -- Radiator: the most portable, flexible and configurable RADIUS server anywhere.
