rlm_sqlcounter: Sent Reply-Item for user scott, Type=Session-Traffic-Limit, value=12792 Which part dont you understand? Sqlcounter returned it. How does the log part of the RADIUS Packet looks like? It should contain the Session-Traffic-Limit if it can be found in the dictionary, right?

September 2008 01:53 To: FreeRadius users mailing list Subject: sqlcounters for traffic I want to se sqlcounters to count bytes transferred from clients so that i manage quota. Aiming this i configured the following counter: sqlcounter bytesQuota { counter-name = traffic_quota check-name = Max-Traffic reply-name = Session-Traffic-Limit sqlmod-inst = mysqldb key = User-Name reset = hourly query = "SELECT SUM(acctinputoctets + acctoutputoctets) FROM radacct WHERE UserName='%{%k}'" } My first problem is that the Session-Traffic-Limit (from the redback dictionnary) is not returned. I can't see it neither in the output of radtest nor with radsniff. Yet, looking at the output of radiusd -X i can see it's correctly understood by freeradius: rlm_sqlcounter: Check item is greater than query result rlm_sqlcounter: Authorized user scott, check_item=12000, counter=10891 rlm_sqlcounter: Sent Reply-Item for user scott, Type=Session-Traffic-Limit, value=12792 ++[bytesQuota] returns ok Does anyone has a clue?

The sqlcounter module creates the attributes on the fly. But... it can't do this if it hasn't been run yet. Line 205 is the line where user scott is defined in users files. I have tryed setting up my own dictionnary (which i think shouldn't be needed) with the Max-Traffic attribute defined as interger VENDOR ME ATTRIBUTE Max-Traffic 1 integer That isn't the correct dictionary file format, but it's not relevant, either. But that doesn't help. I have read all over the web that sqlcounter with mysql are considered as stable enough for production , so am quite surprised of this issue... Any idea? List "sqlcounter" in the "instantiate" section. It will be initialized before the "users" file is read. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
