That would be default virtual server (by default). ...I was actually considering that perhaps the explanation meant the "default" config was the virtual server writing to the detail file.

Thanks for explaining/confirming that for me. I made the necessary changes in the detail module, and now accounting records are being buffered. Yeah! Hopefully I'll still have a working config when I eventually test with the real NAS hardware instead of with just the radclient app. > > Also, decoupled-accounting appears to me to be very similar to > > buffered-sql.

Accounting is totally > separated from authentication. So, once buffered-sql is configured correctly, it's the same thing as decoupled-accounting. Is that right? What I'm trying to say is that although these are two different terms, the end result is exactly the same?
