UPDATED: dumb humble question about sqlippool

Mr. Peter,

Thanks, I was using "sql_instance2{...}" instead of "sql sql_instance2{...}"

:)

Everything is working nice now with this hybrid oracle/postgresql
except when I'm proxying and sqlippool won't set an IP because of
255.255.255.254 answer from the proxy server.

As we talked earlier, there's no override = yes for this so I need to
put "Pool-Name := FOO" in radreply, but even with the reply, it
doesn't work. What I'm doing is convince the proxy ISP to change it's
conf so it don't send me 255.255.255.254 for now.

I have to thank you again for all your help! Now it's my turn to
contribute, as soon as I have the time to look for, I hope to patch
rlm_sqlippool.c and CVS it along with oracle.sqlippool.conf and
radippool schema for oracle.

Greetings
