(RADIATOR) Session Limit Question

[Chris Kay]

Hugh
 
is there a way i can use the results from Identifier CheckUser, in Identifier CheckGroup ect...
 
So in the first authby if the user has a group of Techex can i use Techex in the Identifier CheckGroup authby
EG: select * from online where group = $group (where $group = the result of the first authby)
 
Regards

	Hello Chris - 

	I think you could probably do what you describe with a sequence of 
	AuthBy clauses. 

	Something like this: 

	# define AuthBy clauses 

	<AuthBy SQL> 
	        Identifier CheckUser 
	        ..... 
	</AuthBy> 

	<AuthBy SQL> 
	        Identifier CheckGroup 
	        ..... 
	</AuthBy> 

	<AuthBy SQL> 
	        Identifier CheckLimit 
	        ..... 
	</AuthBy> 

	..... 

	# define Realms or Handlers 

	<Handler .....> 
	        AuthByPolicy ContinueWhileAccept 
	        AuthBy CheckUser 
	        AuthBy CheckGroup 
	        AuthBy CheckLimit 
	        ...... 
	</Handler> 


	The best way to learn about hooks is to look at the file 
	"goodies/hooks.txt" and to study the Radiator source code. 

	regards 

	Hugh
