That's good. For this purpose, you can actually cut out quite a lot - but make sure you've got your config in version control (e.g. git) before you start so that you can easily backtrack if things go wrong. > I edited the proxy.conf file and enabled the > copy-acct-to-home-server server.

Perhaps that's the issue. copy-acct-to-home-server reads a detail file and pushes the "packets" into a virtual server for processing. So you need to write to a detail file for it to read. From your debug output it looks like you're using the standard configuration for 'detail', which won't be where copy-acct-to-home-server expects to read it from. Try something like modules/relay_detail: detail relay_detail { detailfile = ${radacctdir}/relay-detail } sites-enabled/default: ... accounting { relay_detail } ... That should get all accounting packets buffered to ${radacctdir}/relay-detail. Then you need to read them and forward them on, so - sites-enabled/copy-acct-to-home-server: server copy-acct-to-home-server { listen { type = detail filename = ${radacctdir}/relay-detail } preacct { update control { Proxy-To-Realm := 'home_realm' } } accounting { ok } } Then make sure your proxy.conf is configured with realm home_realm correctly. proxy.conf: realm home_realm { ... } This should all write accounting packets to the local detail file, then read them and send them over to the home server. If the home server is down, they will buffer up on this system until the home server comes back again. That should mean you don't drop any logs. Run radiusd -X and watch the output. You should see packets coming in (like your original post), but you should also see the detail reader wake up every second or so and check for packets to relay. If you're not seeing that, then you haven't enabled copy-acct-to-home-server correctly. You should then see that pick up packets and process them.
