(RADIATOR) PreHandlerHook?

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Ricardo, Hello Frank -

You have several choices for hooks within a Realm or Handler,  
depending on when you want to have things happen.

	the PreProcessingHook fires on entry to the Handler

	the PreAuthHook fires before the AuthBy clause(s) are run

	the PostAuthHook fires after the AuthBy clause(s) are run

	the PostProcessingHook fires just before the Handler exits

See section 18 in the Radiator 3.15 reference manual ("doc/ 
ref.html"), and see the code in "Radius/Handler.pm".

Note that the Realm clause is a sub-class of Handler, so behaves in  
exactly the same way.

And as Frank rightly points out, if you want special processing in  
the midst of a sequence of AuthBy's, you can use an AuthBy INTERNAL.

See section 5.48 in the manual.

There are numerous examples in the file "goodies/hooks.txt".

regards

Hugh

Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
