(RADIATOR) Request Attributes using PacketTrace

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Steve -

There are a couple of things you can do in this situation.

First, define your Log FILE inside an AuthBy GROUP like this:

.....

# define Log FILE so it is not a global logger

<AuthBy GROUP>
	<Log FILE>
		Identifier MyLogger
		Filename %L/mylogger-%Y-%m-%d
		Trace 4
	</Log>
</AuthBy>

.....

Next, keep in mind that the packet decode and logging of the request  
attributes happens in the Client clause, so you will need to add the  
logging and the PacketTrace there:

.....

<Client n.n.n.n>
	Log MyLogger
	PacketTrace
	.....
</Client>

.....

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?
Have you checked the RadiusExpert wiki:
