re: updating session-timeout attribute in MySql db through Radius

2003-07-08 Thread Simon Mackey
Hello!

I'm working on a prepaid public internet access system. And I would like to 
be able to update the value of the Session-Timeout attribute in the MySQL 
database through freeRadius, as opposed to just a direct SQL statement to 
the MySQL server. The reason for wanting to do this is so that if a user 
only used half of their allotted time, then they would be able to login at 
another time and still have the other half of their time (stored by the 
Session-Timeout attribute). Is this possible?

Many thanks in advance for any help,
Simon.

That`s simple:
Add another SQL module, that You would use in accounting section.
The query on accounting stop would update the Session-Timeout appropriately.
Comment out other queries in this added module.
All info is in sql.conf - copy that file, modify queries, and include in
radiusd.conf that modified file.

I haven`t tried it - maybe You don`t need to add another module, just add
another query after semicolon.

Greetings
