Hi,
First of all, I'm not very familiar with freeradius, so bear with me. If
more specific information is needed, please ask.
We have set up freeradius to do accounting to a postgresql database, and
I was expecting to see one record pr. session, and mostly we do. But
there are also a lot of records that:
1) Do not have a stop time
2) Doesn't even have an Acct-Session-Time
3) Are duplicates
I have attached a textfile containing a couple of examples.
I am guessing that in case nr. 1 an explicit "Stop" message has not been
received, but when it comes to the two others, I have no clue. Is there
anything that can be done to avoid the duplicates? Can I get freeradius
to log every "Alive" message to the database, so that I at least know
when the last "Alive" was received?
As I am trying to write an application to more easily extract useful
information from the data in the database, I need to know when the
session started and when it ended. Having duplicates and missing stop
times makes this a bit difficult. If someone could take the time to
explain why the stuff I mention here occur, or have tips on other ways
to extract the time the session ends, I'd really appreciate it.
Regards,
Roger Kristiansen
