Re: NAS with dynamic IP
Alex, Is there a command I can run periodically that would flush the dns cache? I use the NAS table in MySQL rather than clients.conf to register my NAS devices. The only problem with NAS devices on PPOE ADSL links is that a restart of Freeradius server is required in order to pick up the new IP address from DYNDNS.org. Would this problem be solved by a rlm_nsupdate module (scheduled for future release)? I would be willing to donate to the creation of this module.

Alternatively, you could define the client as a network (e.g. 192.168/24). See clients.conf for details.

pkill radiusd; /usr/sbin/radiusd i.e. restart the server. Otherwise, no.

How does that help? The problem is that the server might have outstanding requests for a given client record when it's removed. It's a hard problem. Does re-starting the server *really* take so long it's a problem for you?
