ok I like that solution  
Which prompts two questions.  
   
1. Question not wriring to sql locally, how can I tell when users are connected and disconnect from the secondary  
2. Where is the best howto doc on the radrelay module.  
   
Thanks

An easy way to handle this that doesn't involve database clustering is to 
have your secondary radius accounting server not write accounting data to 
sql, but rather to relay all packets it receives back to the primary using 
radrelay. If they primary is down, the packets should be queued, and 
delivered when it comes back up.
