(RADIATOR) tigris and accounting

[Magnus Drougge]

Hugh,

Everything looked ok as far as radiator is concerned (logs, debug
printouts and configuration) so I decided to dig really deep in the
Tigris (as you suggested) before I sent any more info to you.

It turned out that a one-liner in the configuration disabled all
accounting requests on the dial-up realm. That Tigris in all other
aspects were properly configured for radius accounting didn't matter
once that following line was executed:

SET SERVICE PROFILE ACCOUNTING OPTION "###" OFF

So now everything seems to work as it should. One thing bothers me
though. Why did we receive any accounting requests at all when Tigris
was told not to send them for that particular realm? Hmm, I'll have
to spend som time figuring that one out. I really dislike being
ignorant.

Thanks for your help, although I didn't receive a definitive answer
I wouldn't have stumbled upon the solution without your
recommendations.

Regards,

/Drougge
