rlm_acct_unique

A couple of minor comments about raddb/modules/acct_unique (in the v2.1.x
branch at least)

(1) "See doc/rlm_acct_unique for more information"

That file doesn't exist. But there is man/man5/rlm_acct_unique.5

(2) The default setting of

acct_unique {
        key = "User-Name, Acct-Session-Id, NAS-IP-Address, Client-IP-Address, NAS-Port"
}

could be dangerous, because if you are receiving accounting via a network of
proxies, you'll get different session IDs depending on which proxy each
packet came through.  In my opinion, it would be better to drop
Client-IP-Address - and that would be consistent with the example in the
rlm_acct_unique.5 manpage.

Regards,

Brian.
