Hello List, I am attempting to address some issues I have had it setting up proxy accounting using the robust-proxy-accounting example. Just a short background. I used radrelay for years for this very purpose. During a maintenance period or other outage, FreeRADIUS (1.x) would spool all of the accounting data to a single detail file. Once the remote accounting server was accessible, radrelay would then "grab" the file and send all of the data to the accounting server. On occasion, we could have days worth of accounting data that would have to be relayed, but it all seemed to work properly. In FreeRADIUS 2.x, the radrelay functions have been built into radiusd. However, I seem to be having problems with data loss. Everything works fine when the remote accounting server is up. However, when it goes down, here is what I am seeing. 1) Remote accounting server is shutdown (as a test). 2) Radiusd begins to spool accounting data to the defined detail file (i.e. detail-20090409). 3) Radiusd starts to read the detail file (i.e. the "detail.work" is created). 4) Here is where is gets confusing. It almost seems like radiusd goes into some sort of loop. After a short period (less than a minute), all of the files are deleted from the "listen" directory and radiusd goes into a hyper polling mode (see the bottom of the attached debug file). This is very different from the normal polling mode which occurs at appoximatly 1 second intervals. All this does not seem to crash the server, however, the accounting data does appear to be lost which is my greatest concern in this e-mail. If anyone sees any problems with my configuration or needs any further information, please let me know. I am currently using FreeRADIUS 2.1.4. Thanks, Jim L.
