Hi Peter, I did bother to look at rlm_sql. However my need is a bit different. I do not want to fetch values from a DB and added them as values to certain radisu attributes. I want to fetch, do some operation on the feteched value and then add the result of the operation to the radius attributes. Any ideas or suggested steps would be helpful.

The modules rlm_sql and rlm_sql_mysql would seem to be pretty self explanatory :-) It is quite likely that you can do what you need without writing a new module...
