And I have some questions about it. It have searched the web but still can't find a clue or i just missed it :(. Also my questions are: 1. How do we start the session? I have send the request to the server and got access_accepted. And as I know the session is start after we send the accounting_request and get response from the server. The problem is how to do that using command prompt? My Nas is Suse box (that should be fine right?). I use this command to send acct_request echo "User-Name= Anna"| radclient 10.1.0.76 acct -x testing123 Is that right? or is there any place I can refer to use the radclient command? 2. Do I need to write external script to run the command? Because I want to use the session time out but seems still not working.(because I don't know how to start the session) 3. Where should I put the acc_type. Is it in server side or nas side? I really hope someone can help me (please...) Thanks a lot in advance Best Regards, Santy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
