Alan, My problem is that I have to rewrite the SQL code to go fetch the right databases. I understand the "authenticate" means something different. I have to swap out a live ISP environment, so I don't have a go with the flow way of doing it.
I need a little understanding to do this. Cisco Authenticate --> calls --> What code to fetch from SQL Cisco Authorize --> calls --> What code to fetch from SQL. There are the terms, authorize and authenticate in both radiusd.conf, and sql.conf. I do appreciate the help, I am not too thick, I just need to know what to do. After I need to be able to have AVPairs answered back to set speed and things, and there is a custom database, (billing software) that I need to do this with.

Q: Do you really want all of your users to have accounts where they can access the SQL database? A: No, so you don't "authenticate" to the SQL server. You store passwords in SQL, and the server figures out what to do from there. To put it another way, your question is based on the wrong assumptions, so the question itself is wrong. Throw away your assumptions. My original answer stands. Please READ it, and BELIEVE it. The server will figure out what to do on its own. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
