It is not documented in the rlm_ldap file shipped in top-level directory (at least for release 2.0.0). The fact that there is a huge redundancy between this file and comments in default configuration files doesn't help maintaining a reference documentation.
The configuration files are up-to-date. Other documentation files may not be.
As always, we welcome patches to help fix code or documentation. Here is a trivial one.
... if you have suggestions for how to make that determination, I'm interested. No, especially as I got no clue about freeradius internals.
There's no need to understand the internals. All you need to do is understand the configuration, and to come up with some simple logic for the "right" thing to do. What's wrong with just looking recursively for the name under which the module has been instanciated in the authorization section, without interpreting fail-over behaviour at all ?
The problem is a common one in computer science: write a program that "understands" what another program is doing. This problem is generally known to be impossible. Here the communication occurs between the main program, and one of its module, the relationship is a bit tighter. -- Guillaume Rousse Moyens Informatiques - INRIA Futurs Tel: 01 69 35 69 62
