I want to return an error code if my freeradius can't contact with the backend.

Here is my authorize section:

That won't work, unfortunately. The return codes of *modules* can be over-written. The return code of a "switch" statement cannot be. This issue is largely due to the fact that the configuration files have had functionality piled on top of old code. We want to be backwards compatible, so breaking existing systems isn't an option. But this limits the capabilities of the new functions. In short: re-write the rules so that you don't use "switch". Alan DeKok.
