So you think freeradius is faulty and unsecure because it didn't work the
way you wanted when you didn't configure it properly?

sqlcounter will instatiate sql instance it needs before it is
instantiated. Files module will not instatiate all possible sql, ldap,
counter and whatever instances that might field attributes in it. You will
have to add them to instatiate if they are not loaded *before* files
module on server startup. If you list those instances before files in
authorize they should also be instantiated before files on startup.
