attr_rewrite fixusername {
                attribute = User-Name
                # may be "packet", "reply", "proxy", "proxy_reply" or "config"
                searchin = proxy
                searchfor ="wanadoo"
                replacewith = %{exec:/bin/cat /var/www/html/user}
                ignore_case = no
                new_attribute = no
                max_matches = 10
        #       ## If set to yes then the replace string will be appended to the original string
#               append = no
        }

Thanks Alan......
But do have any idea to work around that?
    

  See the FAQ.  If the NAS doesn't send data in an accounting packet, go
read the NAS documentation to see how to configure it to send that
information.

  But send User-Password?  Nope.  It's impossible.
