As far as I learned you should not user these Realms but two "Handlers", one for Authentification-Request and one for Accounting-Requests. Search the archive, there was several similar requests (one from me) in the last days. bye, -christian- -- Christian HammersWESTEND GmbH - Aachen und Dueren Tel 0241/701333-0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet & Security for ProfessionalsFax 0241/911879 === Archive at http://www.starport.net/~radiator/ To unsubscribe, email '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' with 'unsubscribe radiator' in the body of the message.

Sure - on your Authentication server, add something like this: Host your.accounting.server Secret youracctsecret If you are currently using Realms, change them to Handlers like this: -> You will also need to be careful with ordering the Handlers so the more specific appear in the configuration file before the more general. Note that the Request-Type check item appeared in Radiator 2.15 (or alternatively there is a patch for Radiator 2.14.1). Of course, you will also need to create a Client clause on your Accounting server to match the AuthBy RADIUS above. hth Hugh -- Radiator: the most portable, flexible and configurable RADIUS server anywhere.

(RADIATOR) Forwarding accounting only
We run two copies of Radiator on different systems. One is intended as our primary authentication server, the other as our only accounting server. The accounting server acts as a secondary authentication server, though that is not its intended purpose. For our own POPs, this works quite well. We do have a few locations where we don't control the NAS and the requests come to us through proxy servers. Although we carefully explain our requirements, these sites frequently send accounting data to the wrong server. I'd like to find a way to work around these configuration errors without waiting for the other administrators to take action. Is there a way to ask Radiator to forward only accounting requests from the authentication server to the accounting server? Obviously, I don't want to forward authentication requests. -- Dave Close Quik Internet +1 949 548 2171 Costa Mesa California [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.quik.com/ === Archive at http://www.starport.net/~radiator/ To unsubscribe, email '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' with 'unsubscribe radiator' in the body of the message.
