Thank you the answers. I see that my freeradius server is receiving accounting request when I use "radclient" and it logs it as well.<div>As you said that the client is responsible for sending accounting requests to the server, I am new to radius server and PAM, so not sure how this is done (apart from using radclient)?</div>
<div>Pointers here would be appreciated.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 1, 2013 at 8:20 AM, Alan DeKok <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:aland@deployingradius.com" target="_blank">aland@deployingradius.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

</div> Does that look like the FAQ? There *IS* a FAQ link on that page.<br>
Read it.<br>
<br>
The FAQ describes what to do when you don't receive accounting data.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
> Also, for the PAM, do I need to enable accounting on the client as well?<br>
<br>
</div> No.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
> Is the client responsible for sending accounting packets to the<br>
> freeradius server?<br>
<br>
</div> Yes.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
> Please let me know the FAQ link you are referring.<br>
<br>
</div> I fail to understand why it's difficult to go to "<a href="http://www.freeradius.org" target="_blank">www.freeradius.org</a>",<br>
and click on the "FAQ" link.<br>
