  Uh... you do know that "session" is not the same as "accounting", right?

  Why are you doing something wrong?

  Do you understand what the server does when it receives an accounting
packet?

  Have you tried running the server in debugging mode, and seeing what
happens when it receives an accounting packet?

  Do that before asking more questions.  Watch the server go update SQL.

  Now... how do you query SQL (independent of RADIUS) to see if the
users session is over quota?

  Then... put that query into the "accounting" section, via "unlang".
Check if the user is over quota.  If so, send a disconnect message.

  See raddb/sites-available/originate-coa for examples of originating a
disconnect message.
