Hugh,

         Works like a charm! One minor change, so i dont have to keep track 
of 2 attributes, i just use one as follows:

         <AuthBy GROUP>
                 AuthBy          CGate_via_LDAP
                 StripFromRequest        Visi-AuthBy
                 AddToRequest    Visi-AuthBy=LDAP
         </AuthBy>
         <AuthBy GROUP>
                 AuthBy          Auth_SQL
                 StripFromRequest        Visi-AuthBy
                 AddToRequest    Visi-AuthBy=SQL
         </AuthBy>

I don't really need the first Strip request, but in case i add an earlier 
clause it will already be there. Then i use the following in my AuthLog SQL:

        FailureQuery    insert into RADAUTHLOG (TIME_STAMP, USERNAME, \
                         DOMAIN, REASON, RADSERVER, NASIDENTIFIER, \
                         CALLING_STATION_ID, CALLED_STATION_ID, \
                         ATTEMPTED_PASSWORD, AUTH_BY) \
                         values (%t, '%u', '%R', %1, '%h', '%c', \
                         '%{Calling-Station-Id}', '%{Called-Station-Id}', \
                         '%P', '%{Visi-AuthBy}')

Thanks again!
