the only thing that seems to give any clue for := vs == is doc/rlm_attr_filter [snip] o The operators used for specifying the attributes are as follows:
= - NOT ALLOWED. If used, it becomes "==" := - Set ( used to ensure a specific a/v is present ) == - Equal ( exact ) =* - Always Equal ( will allow all values for attribute ) !* - Always Not Equal ( will block all values for attribute ) != - Not equal >= - Greater than or equal to <= - Less than or equal to > - Greater than < - Less than If you have regular expressions enabled you also have: =~ - Regular expression equal !~ - Regular expression not equal [/snip] so in theory, if these operators are the same everywhere (just an assumption, but i don't feel like digging into the source to find out for sure) then a radcheck with password := 123456 would set the password to 123456 and password == 123456 would see if the password is 123456 On Monday 09 December 2002 8:03, you wrote: > so what would it matter if it is := ? > I use that one in my conf files?
