ippools and Pool-Name

[up at 3.am]

Hi:

I am trying to configure a server-side IP pool for select pptp users to 
bypass the NAS's internal pool.  The documentation appears sparse, but 
this is what I've done so far:

In raddb/radiusd.conf:

         ippool users_pool {
                 range-start = 172.16.1.2
                 range-stop = 172.16.1.253
                 netmask = 255.255.255.0
                 cache-size = 251
                 session-db = ${db_dir}/db.ippool
                 ip-index = ${db_dir}/db.ipindex
                 override = yes
         }

In raddb/users

sometestuser    Pool-Name :="users_pool"
                 Framed-Protocol == PPP,
                 Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobson-TCP-IP

However, "sometestuser" is simply allocated an IP from the NAS's internal 
pool, seemingly ignoring this.  I also noticed that the files db.ippool 
and db.ipindex are not being created.

Is there something else I'm missing?

TIA,
