(RADIATOR) Re: SQLRADIUS questions

[Sam Nilsson]

This does help quite a bit.

Are you saying that I can use the "FailureBackoffTime" parameter in an 
AuthBy SQLRADIUS
clause to indicate how long to mark the SQL connection unavailable?

In this case, can i set it to 0 to always attempt to contact the SQL 
server? Can i also use
"Retries" and "RetryTimeout" as parameters to control the SQL connection 
attempts?

I'm using mysql although i guess that doesn't matter.

The documentation for radiator is excellent, but it is also difficult to 
fully document something
that is so flexible and full featured.

Thanks for your help.
