(RADIATOR) Multiple session databases?

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Christian -

As you have already discovered, Radiator only supports a single  
SessionDatabase per Realm or Handler.

You can however use an additional AuthBy SQL clause to do whatever  
you require.

Ie.

<Realm nnnnn>

         AuthByPolicy ContinueAlways

         <AuthBy SQL>
                 .....
                 # disable authentication
                 AuthSelect
                 AccountingTable ....
                 .....
                 AcctSQLStatement ......
         </AuthBy>

         <AuthBy RADIUS>
                 .....
         </AuthBy>

</Realm>


hope that helps

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
