cool thanks for the info that helps alot. I though about just coping it all
to a temp dir and doing it then just coping it back if it got screwed up but
that probably would be better that way I would always have a archived backup
handy.

Nick,

The Makefile is setup so that it won't overwrite your config files.  You
should be fine by running 'make install'.  If you're nervous of doing this,
just tar up your raddb directory so you have a way to undo what has been
done.

  'man 5 users'.  See the 'operator' field in the SQL schema, you
probably want '+=', instead of '='.

  FreeRADIUS lets you specify that on a per-attribute basis, every
time it sees the attribute.

  Post what you did to make it work, and it can be included in the
sample configs.

At first thnx. 2 all. I finally made it.

Everything is now running fine. I hope. It's not productive in the moment we
will start tomorow 11 AM MET to switch it productive.

Another Question:
I've put some Nat related Parameters in the radgroupreply table. this is
three times the same Attribute with a different value. If I check, the
radius server only returns the last value. If I put the same lines for every
user inside the radreply everything is working fine. I'd like to minimize
the data by putting redundant data only once in the group file. What was my
error?
What do you need to answer this question. Its a Vendor specific attribute.
In GNU Radius I've found the possibility to declare Attributes additive or
not in the dictionary file. Here I do not see somthing alike. The Attribute
is something like Bintec-IpNatPresetTable or so.

Really I can not tell you anymore this was more somthing like calling help
if you are drowning.

In fact there is nothing to fix but the documentation. ;-)
I just didn't make it through the config file. Perhaps its all too simple.

Anyway after todays 3 or 4 Hours everything was working like I wanted it.
just answering packets was not what I wanted to do. It was about this
scenario with the Bintec X4000 and radius based dialout routes.

But not all! That was my prob.

I did it and so we finally made it perhaps sombody should put some work in
the interesting sections in the config.
Perhaps I can put my own humble part in this puzzle.
I am now very much relieved that everything is fine now.

Thanks a lot. It's very nice to know you are not alone.
