custom variable in config files

[Tariq Rashid]

ok - i've worked out how to do this wityh {config:var_name} where var_name can be declared in radiusd.conf or an included file.

the %{config:var_name} can be used in a users file easily - in the reply attibutes, in the password condition test too .. but not in the user name...

so this works ... 

	# local test user for monitoring and diagnostics
	test1 at proxyradius} User-Password == "test1.proxyradius.%{config:easynet_site}"
	        Reply-Message = "hello from the proxyradius layer %{config:easynet_site}"

but this doesn't ...

	# local test user for monitoring and diagnostics
	test1 at proxyradius.%{config:easynet_site} User-Password == "test1.proxyradius.%{config:easynet_site}"
	        Reply-Message = "hello from the proxyradius layer %{config:easynet_site}"


any ideas? i'm using version 1.0.2 on debian 3.1

Subject: custom variable in config files



hi - is it possible for me to declare a variable in one inlcuded config file, which is then visible in all the config files?

in order to keep the config file as simple as possible, i want to take out the site/server dependent portion into a variable. so at each different site/server i would have an included file with a variable "location=london" or "location=paris" and then this is visible in all other config files eg

users:
	test@${location} .... etc

clients.conf
	shortname = abc.def.${location}

is this possible?
