(RADIATOR) Question about configuration file

2003-07-24 Thread DUFOUR Geoffrey








Hello,



As far as I understand, radiusd reads the
configuration file only once (when it starts). Correct ? 



Is there a way to force radiusd to read the file
every x min. or every time the file is updated (new realm, RADIUS client, )
without restarting it ?



I would also like to know if it is possible to store
realms/handlers configuration information in a SQL database instead of in a
flat file (the same way you can do it for RADIUS clients with ClientListSQL).



Regards.



Geoffrey

Correct - but see below.

No. Although you can use a HUP signal to cause a warm restart during which the configuration file is reread.

I would also like to know if it is possible to store realms/handlers configuration information in a SQL database instead of in a flat file (the same way you can do it for RADIUS clients with ClientListSQL).


No there isn't.

AFAIK

 Is there a way to force radiusd to read the file every x min. or every
 time the file is updated (new realm, RADIUS client, ...) without
 restarting it ?

You can get it to reload every x mins by sending SIGHUP from cron. If you
want it to happen when the config file changes you could either make the
cron job check modification times of the file and still check ever x
minutes or use a program like wait_on.

2003-07-24 Thread Brandon
I would recommend using an INSERT IGNORE instead of an INSERT.

This is a mysql issue, it means that you have a unique key (primary key)
defined in
your mysql table and your are trying to add another entry with the same
unique key.

Hmm... What are the implications of an Insert Ignore?

Will it override the primary key constraint thus giving you two rows with
the same primary key or will it simply not do the insert?

Re: (RADIATOR) Issue with Duplicate Key when Adding a Session

2003-07-24 Thread Brandon
An INSERT IGNORE will just make it so you dont see the error message.  It
basically
means ignore the error message.   It will still try to do the insert, it
won't add a 2nd row,
and it wont give an error message.

From the mysql manual:

If you specify the keyword IGNORE in an INSERT with many rows, any rows that
duplicate
an existing PRIMARY or UNIQUE key in the table are ignored and are not
inserted.

Re: (RADIATOR) Issue with Duplicate Key when Adding a Session

2003-07-24 Thread Hugh Irvine
Hello Paul -

The error is a MySQL error which is complaining about a duplicate entry  
for a unique key.

The unique key for the RADONLINE table is the combination of the  
NAS-Identifier and NAS-Port which is what Radiator bases its session  
database and simultaneous use checking on - the assumption being that  
there are unique ports on each NAS.

The theory behind Radiator's use of the session database is that every  
NAS is uniquely identified by the NAS-Identifier and every port on  
every NAS is also uniquely identified by the NAS-Port attribute. When  
Radiator receives an access request, it performs a delete on the  
session database using the NAS-Identifier and NAS-Port combination as  
preventative maintenance in case we have missed an accounting stop for  
the port in question. When Radiator receives an accounting start a new  
record is inserted into the session database and when an accounting  
stop is received the record is removed.

Obviously if in your situation the NAS-Identifier + NAS-Port  
combination is not unique, you will have a problem with the session  
database (and it will be impossible to enforce simultaneous use limits).

regards

Hugh
