I've just committed some fixes to debugging output. It now prints the section names as it's parsing them: foo { bar = stuff } Which is a lot cleaner than what was there before. Also, the lines with brackets are indented one space for every section nesting, which makes it easier to track sections && subsections. The rest of the messages printed out during server initialization have been normalized to a more standard form. The debug output for handling packets has changed. There's less text on the screen, which makes it easier to read (for the people who actually read it.) It also shows some limited nesting via "+". After some back and forth, I decided it was clearer to use "+" rather than anything else. e.g. +- entering group authorize ++[foo] returns ok ++[bar] returns noop ... +- group authorize returns ok The individual module debug output is still indented with spaces, which makes it easier to tell the difference between server messages && module messages. All told, it's very different from 1.x, and I hope much easier to understand. Alan DeKok. -- http://deployingradius.com - The web site of the book http://deployingradius.com/blog/ - The blog
