Re: Handling duplicate users across many servers.
Ah ha. I didn't even know radrelay existed. :) I think I can get this all figured out then. Thanks Alan and Simon.

You could output the logs to 3 separate 'combined detail files' and run three instances of radrelay on the primary accounting server though.

OK, stupid question then. What's radrelay? Regards, Justin Wheeler -- Computer programmer (n): Red-eyed mammal capable of communicating with electronics and inanimate equipment.

Handling duplicate users across many servers.
OK, I have 4 different radius locations. They all replicate to one-another Every 15 minutes so that I can provide local authentication to each NAS server in 4 different cities. All of the NASes report their accounting packets to the same freeradius server. As such, 3 of the 4 locations do not have radwtmp files, since they dont receive any accounting packets. I want to be able to handle duplicate users, but radwtmp wont prove anything on those 3 systems, since its empty. Anyone have any ideas?
