how to have freeradius/unlang do two or more SQL statements at onetime

[Arran Cudbard-Bell]

Hi All,

The old rlm_xlat function only supported SELECT statements, and threw up 
errors on any others.

The patch Alan mentioned makes rlm_sql look for INSERT, DELETE and 
UPDATE keywords at the beginning of SQL statements. If one of these 
keywords is found and instead of expanding to the first row of the first 
column of the result, rlm_sql expands to the number of rows affected by 
the statement, and no longer throws an error.

It is now therefore possible, to replicate most of the functionality of 
rlm_sql with unlang statements.

You'll now be able to do them with unlang to :).

Thanks,
Arran
