RE: accounting - respose from freeradius, and forward
thanks for the suggestion. i've had a look at this and it doesn't seem like an elegant solution to me. i'll have another look to see if it is possible using mechanisms within the radiusd.conf (perhaps calling 2 modules, one to reply, one to forward). t -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Nicolas Baradakis Sent: 03 August 2005 15:47 To: FreeRadius users mailing list Subject: Re: accounting - respose from freeradius, and forward Tariq Rashid wrote: we'd like freeradius to reply to accounting requests (start, stop, interim) with acknowledgements, but also to forward the accounting request to a backend radius server but to ignore the response from this prozy behaviour. this means that the querying NAS equipment doesn't spend time and resources waiting for a backend reply to an accounting request. however, the backend radius (possibly belionging to a 3rd party organisation) will need to see the accounting packets - we just ignore/drop their repsonse.

There could be a replicate module, which would send packets to multiple destinations. I'd prefer not to have it in the server core. For that matter, proxying could very much be a module.
