I did explain what I was trying to do with the failover and the attr_rewrite function, 

what more can a person say about the attrib rewrite, other than the attribute rewrite is supposed to check for an attribute in a packet in this case the reply packet, if it finds the attribute,  change it and basically carry on

But when it checks for the attribute in the reply packet, it says it can't find it, but it still does the attrib-rewrite changes the values and then moans it couldn’t find the value pair. This is obviously not normal in my opinion, and thus I asked about a specific problem. I only attached the debug portion as it is specific to the problem.

When you take your car to the garage for a brake problem, you don’t explain how the engine, fan, wheels, boot opener works,  you say the car does not stop when I push the breaks. If the mechanic asks for more info then you tell him.

Constructive answer like always is to analyze what you want to achieve with freeradius. Rethink the configuration, read the documentation for you setup needs and ask straight-forward question. You cannot just post the debug output and hope that someone can understand what you actually need.

Try to elaborate your setup, the steps you have already done and of course the debugging output. Alan will probably give you simple answer like yes/no and point to the right direction. But again - you cannot expect someone to do the installation and setup for you ! People are usually paid for that !

Although Alan might be sarcastic, he has never let anyone down who was willing to learn and accept the mistakes ( including myself ).

No not at all, and I don’t expect it. 

But at least someone like yourself, who seems to be the guru on freeradius, could at least reply with a constructive answer rather than replying with sarcastic comments.

My question is where did I announce I don’t read the documentation that is the first thing I went to.

I have gone through the read me's, faq's etc and have followed their directions regarding this, it’s the debug that is giving the error. And responding with weird checks, that is exactly why I posted here as there is no google results / faqs, etc that answer my question.

Regards

Keith

  Is there a contractual obligation requiring people to support you?

  In any case, you haven't followed the instructions in the FAQ, README,
INSTALL, etc.  You've already announced that you don't read the
documentation people write, so why would anyone write more on this list?
