(RADIATOR) RE: Defining different hosts for authentication and accounting in the same handler

Hello Michael -

Correct - you should have one AuthBy RADIUS to forward authentication  
to one host and another AuthBy RADIUS clause to forward the  
accounting to another host. You should use AuthByPolicy  
ContinueAlways and the accounting should be first:

         AuthByPolicy ContinueAlways

         <AuthBy RADIUS>
                 # do accounting
                 .....
         </AuthBy>

         <AuthBy RADIUS>
                 # do authentication
                 .....
         </AuthBy>


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?
