In that howto on the 2nd para of OVERVIEW: 
"The radius servers will be accepting Radius auth packets and Radius
acct packets.  The accounting packets will be stored locally on each
radius server and then forwarded to the Accounting radius server,
using radrelay.  The Accounting radius server will store all the
radius information in some sort of database such as MySQL, Postgres,
or Oracle."

Question: My setup is rather simple. Just one server at the moment that houses the LDAP, RADIUS and mySQL server. Would it be possible to make mySQL accept the acct packets by default and thus making no use of radrelay altogether?
