Hi there, We're running freeradius 1.1.4 on freebsd 5.5, using unixodbc and freetds to talk to mssql. According to the default mssql file file the _alt queries are only supposed to run if there is an error when doing the first sql query. # accounting_update_query - query for Accounting update packets # accounting_update_query_alt - query for Accounting update packets # (alternate in case first query fails) However this isn't the case.
