Logging attributes to the regular log

[Frank Bulk - iNAME]

I'll do my best to ignore the abrasive comments.

I'm not in the position that I can edit the source code.  Is there is a
feature request form that you can point me to?  This is something that I
would benefit many others, too.

Yes, ISC's DHCP is different, but it's a core networking service just like
DNS.  Functionality built into one may suggest a feature capability
appreciated by the broader sysadmins out there.

'rlm_linelog' doesn't appear to have much documentation -- can someone point
me in the right direction?

  Edit the source code.

  That's nice.  It's a completely different piece of software.

  Use rlm_linelog to log the information you want to a log file.  The
authentication log message is just the default.  You can always suppress
it, and log exactly the information you want using another module.
