hi all :: I have a weird problem. If I am not mistaken sessions are logged and remove on accouting-start and accouting-stop but I have encountered where an active session for a particular users have been deleted from the session database without the corresponding accounting stop packet. I am running Freeradius 1.0.4 on Solaris 9. Is there a problem with radutmp ?? My config file for radutmp under radiusd.conf :: =========================== radutmp { # Where the file is stored. It's not a log file, # so it doesn't need rotating. # filename = ${logdir}/radutmp # The field in the packet to key on for the # 'user' name, If you have other fields which you want # to use to key on to control Simultaneous-Use, # then you can use them here. # # Note, however, that the size of the field in the # 'utmp' data structure is small, around 32 # characters, so that will limit the possible choices # of keys. # # You may want instead: %{Stripped-User-Name:-%{User-Name}} username = %{User-Name} # Whether or not we want to treat "user" the same # as "USER", or "User". Some systems have problems # with case sensitivity, so this should be set to # 'no' to enable the comparisons of the key attribute # to be case insensitive. # case_sensitive = yes # Accounting information may be lost, so the user MAY # have logged off of the NAS, but we haven't noticed. # If so, we can verify this information with the NAS, # # If we want to believe the 'utmp' file, then this # configuration entry can be set to 'no'. # check_with_nas = no # Set the file permissions, as the contents of this file # are usually private. perm = 0600 callerid = "yes" } Thanks !
