Hi James, That looks perfect for the tech logs, thanks. The debugging side was a little different, I was thinking about inputting text strings in the middle of unlang scripts. Usually when I write say a C program I will pop in a lot of printf's with variables so I know what a variable is in a program, well use to anyway debuggers make that to easy now to waste time on it. For freeradius I was not sure if there was similar functionality. I am guessing there is not, I was kind of thinking it may be a stretch to add something like that in a config file. Thanks for the linelog module, that will really help a lot!!. Brett Littrell Network Manager MUSD CISSP, CCSP, CCVP, MCNE

Hi All,
Real quick and I am sure easy question here. I read through the unlang man page, really helped in getting a clue. One thing I was wondering though, is there a way to output text to the log based on a condition? What I mean is something like if x!=y then printf(" x did not equal y"). This would be for debugging and log review. Currently we use Cisco ACS, which with all it's limitations the one thing that is great about it is it's pass/fail logs. Our techs use them all the time to diagnose problems. If I could inject text strings into the logs when certain issues occur it would make it a lot easier to figure out scripts as well as make common issues easier for techs to troubleshoot. From what I can tell in the unlang man page it did not mention this, perhaps I missed it though.
Hi Brett, It sounds like the linelog module may do what you need, in conjunction with unlang for the conditionals: <https://github.com/alandekok/freeradius-server/blob/v2.1.x/raddb/modules/linelog> Regards, James -- James J J Hooper Network Specialist Information Services University of Bristol http://www.wireless.bristol.ac.uk -- - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
