(RADIATOR) FW: fall back databases

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello David -

You use the same method for AuthLog SQL as for AuthBy SQL - you  
specify multiple DBSource, DBUsername and DBAuth lines, one for each  
target.

You can also alter the timeout and failure backoff time using the  
Timeout and FailureBackoffTime parameters.

See sections 5.29, 5.29.4 and 5.29.5 in the Radiator 4.2 reference  
manual ("doc/ref.pdf").

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:
