  As I said, the "sql" module is referenced in
raddb/sites-available/default.  You need to READ it, and uncomment all
of the references to SQL.  This includes the references in the
"accounting" section.

  What I said was that the server is NOT receiving accounting requests.

  What I said was that the radacct packets get populated when the server
receives accounting requests.

  Exactly.  Read the pfSense documentation to see if it supports
accounting packets.

  That's a typo.  It's been fixed.

  That's what I'm trying to tell you.  Please believe me, and stop
asking the same question again.  The answer won't change.

  No.  It's NOT logging to the "radacct" file.  Go back and read the
debug output again.
