What documentation exists is either included with the server, on the web page, or pointed to from the web page. To imply that some additional documentation exists is to imply that the developers of the server have secret documentation which they show only to the people who ask.

what attributes go in which SQL tables?
i do know what man pages are, I did set all of this up myself. I'm new (6 months) to Linux but I'm able to figure stuff out with just a push in the right direction...you could have said RTFM and I would have gotten the hint. typing man users doesn't bring up anything about radius, it's about the users command, which reports who's logged into the system. that doesn't change how the server works - that's not very helpful, sorry - my whole question was about how the server works becuase I DON'T understand it and (sorry if I'm being repetitive) I was asking if there was anywhere else I could look for enlightenment. I guess the answer is no. I appreciate the time you've spent answering my questions. I'll look elsewhere for the answers I'm looking for. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Alan DeKok Sent: Thursday, September 30, 2004 3:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: stupid question Man Users - What does that mean? Manually added users? It means read the documentation for the users file in the system man pages. Try typing man users on a command-line, and picking up an intro to Unix book. If you don't know what man pages are, you're missing a LOT of the available documentation. I asked about the order that it looks at the tables because I thought that radcheck was for validation only. However George's reply indicated that I should put Auth-Type in radcheck - but to my current way of thinking Auth-Type is a a reply-type thing, not a validation-type thing... You cna think that way if you want, but that doesn't change how the server works. after I put the Auth-Type entry into radcheck (it's the only Auth-Type entry in the whole database I still get the following warning (2 auth types)in the debug screen: So read the rest of the debug log to see what else is going on. So is there no precise breakdown of which types of attributes (as in the users file on page 84 of the oreilly book) go in which SQL table and the order in which the tables are checked, including error conditions?

Re: what attributes go in which SQL tables?
I really wish I could just pass on the flame war, however: I resent your use of the phrase lied to. I didn't know that you wanted me to type man users - that may seem obvious to you and possibly everyone else but not to me, my apologies. In the future, you could advise type 'man users' and read up you stoopid eediot and I would have understood. Or...not, totally up to you. I thought that your private reply was condescending in the extreme, despite my best attempts to convey to you my gratitude for your advice and my thanks to you for replying and despite the fact that I prefaced all of my queries with a note that I was a newbie etc. I don't think (I don't hope) that you would have taken that tone in a public forum - however, judging by your latest, I see that I was wrong (again). If you're upset that something you typed got posted on the Internet I respectfully suggest that you not type things like that.

I would have thought that the docs I was looking for would have existed somewhere as they seem like they would be very basic knowledge re: the interaction of radius and mysql - an assumption that has surely caused me to look like the proverbial a**. I'll be certain to strip out my assumptions next time. Brian Ammons [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: ... You sent me a private message, I sent you a private response.
