we are in the progress of migrating freeradius servers and encountering behavior changes 1.X: "check_item := takes precedence over group check_item :=" 2.X: "check_item := being overwritten by group check_item :=" current_release=1.1.8 target_release=2.2.3 (or any other stable) Some more detail: sqlcounter.conf configured with: sqlcounter limitvolume { counter-name = Octets-Total check-name = Max-Octets ... } behavior for: Max-Octets with operator ":=" ONLY groupcheck item set result in 1.1.8: groupcheck-item is taken, no issue result in 2.2.3: groupcheck-item is taken, no issue behavior for: Max-Octets with operator ":=" usercheck item set groupcheck item set result in 1.1.8: usercheck-item takes precende, no issue result in 2.2.3: groupcheck-item overwrites usercheck-item, user not able to increase his volume limit independent of the group he is a member off. I've validated as well in 2.1.12 which yields the same behavior as 2.2.3. So behavior has changed from 1.x to 2.x How can I make a user inherit group items while still overriding specific user check control items. The of "=" is not allowed, so i'm currently without direction in how to get this behavior back. Is this a bug or intended behavior, and how can I resolve this? Regards, Jonathan
