[radius] Freeradius/MySql problem

[Nick Marino]

First you need to have a standard for your accounts you need to decide if 
they should all be uppercase or lower case then restrict the oppisite.

I am not understanding if you are saying you have accounts that some are 
uppercase and some are lower case?

What is your standard?
