From this location I have no direct access to the NAS in question at the moment, so that will have to wait a bit.
But what about my comment that the user should not get a 'Login OK' but a 'Invalid user (rlm_sqlcounter: Maximum never usage time reached)' as soon as 24 hours have passed and he tries to log in again...? Am I wrong there? Regards, Evert liran tal wrote:
How about checking Alan's comment on whether your NAS is actually sending accounting information or not?

There is indeed a record in the usergroup-table with UserName= ofjyc5 GroupName= 24hours

Hopefully you didn't forget to set the user-group mapping in usergroup table, right?

I have users in my system who are supposed to be able to logon as much as they want, in a period of 24 hours starting from their 1st logon. ... however, a user who is a member of the 24hours group is able to log on longer than the 24hours period: Is the server receiving accounting packets?
The fact that a user received an Access-Accept doesn't mean they succeeded in logging in. The NAS may have rebooted, they may have hung up, the Access-Accept could have been lost, etc.
The server knows (and accounts for) the user logging in only when it receives an Accounting-Request packet. The accounting packets are also used to determine how long the user was logged in for. Provided both the server and the NAS have not rebooted in the mean time, shouldn't the server send a 'Maximum never usage time reached', based on the rules in sqlcounter.conf, accounting packets or not?
How long the user has been logged on in the 24-hour period is not really relevant in my case. All I need is that when the user tries to log in again > 24 hours after 1st logon (based on AcctStartTime) he gets a 'Maximum never usage time reached'.
(I'll have to check on the accounting packets. Not sure about them)
