rlm_sqlippool and a few issues

[RobertB]

I guess I sent my post a bit too early. I have spent some more time with the 
module and it seems
like most of my concerns can be accomplished by playing with sql statements.


>>2. # lease_duration. fix for lost acc-stop packets -

Actually when a new auth request arrives sqlippool frees
the ip(which was assigned on the same nas/port) first and then
tries to assigne it if  it's still available..

>>3. DEFAULT as an pool name.
>>Is there any way to tell rlm_sqlippool to pick up an ip from any pool

>>Something like rlm_ipppool's DEFAULT for the pool name?

by naming ip pools like sqlippool1, sqlippool2, etc. we can do

SELECT ip_address FROM radippool WHERE pool_name LIKE 'sqlippool%'
instead of
SELECT ip_address FROM radippool WHERE pool_name = 'sqlippool1'.

Seems like it works just fine.

cheers,
