They mainly refer to Autz-Type exec Acct-Type which already had lots of text.
serves the same purpose as the 'users' file, but applies to accounting
packets.
+Like Autz-Type, if a module changes Acct-Type, after the current
+selection of modules has been run, the section is reexamined for
+a subsection matching the new Acct-Type.
+
For example, a server administrator is responsible for handling the
accounting data for two different realms, foo.com and bar.com, and
wishes to use different instances of the SQL module for each. In
to be logged only to a specific detail file. Everything else should
use a third SQL instance.
+
The acct_users file would look something like this:
---
radiusd.conf---
-session{
+session {
radutmp
Session-Type SQL {
sql
--- /dev/null
+This is now called Post-Auth-Type, for consistency.
+
+Post-Auth-Type is used to select between groupings of
+modules using arbitrary attributes. It is functionally
+identical to Autz-Type, apart from the name of the
+attribute.
--- /dev/null
+Post-Proxy-Type is used to select between groupings of
+modules using arbitrary attributes. It is functionally
+identical to Autz-Type, apart from the name of the

-This is now called Post-Auth-Type, for consistency.
-
-Like Auth-Type for authentication method selection freeradius also
-supports the Autz-Type to select between authorization methods. The only
-problem is that authorization is the first thing to be called when an
-authentication request is handled. As a result we first have to call the
-authorize section without checking for Autz-Type. After that we check for
-Autz-Type and if it exists we call the corresponding subsection in the
-authorize section. In other words the authorize section in radiusd.conf
-should look like this:
-
-
-authorize{
- suffix
- preprocess
- # whatever other authorize modules here
- Autz-Type Ldap{
- ldap
- }
- Autz-Type SQL{
- sql
- }
- files
-}
-
-What happens is that the first time the authorize section is examined the
-suffix, preprocess and files modules are executed. If Autz-Type is set
-after that the server core checks for any matching Autz-Type subsection.
-If one is found it is called. The users file should look something
-like this:
-
-DEFAULT Called-Station-Id == "123456789", Autz-Type := Ldap
-
-DEFAULT Realm == "other.company.com", Autz-Type := SQL
-
-Autz-Type could also be used to select between multiple instances of
-a module (ie sql or ldap) which have been configured differently. For
-example based on the user realm different ldap servers (belonging to
-different companies) could be queried. If Auth-Type was also set then we
-could do both Authentication and Authorization with the user databases
-belonging to other companies. In detail:
-
-radiusd.conf-----------------
-
-authenticate{
- Auth-Type customer1{
- ldap1
- }
- Auth-Type customer2{
- ldap2
- }
-}
-
-authorize{
- preprocess
- suffix
- Autz-Type customer1{
- ldap1
- }
- Autz-Type customer2{
- ldap2
- }
- files
-}
-
------------------------------
-
-users file-------------------
-
-DEFAULT Realm == "customer1", Autz-Type := customer1, Auth-Type := customer2
-
-DEFAULT Realm == "customer2", Autz-Type := customer2, Auth-Type := customer2
-
-----------------------------
-
-Apart from Autz-Type the server also supports the use of
-Post-Auth-Type, Session-Type and Acct-Type for the corresponding
-sections. The corresponding section names in the radiusd.conf file are
-the same. So for example:
-
-users file---
-
-DEFAULT Called-Station-Id == "236473", Session-Type := SQL
-
-radiusd.conf---
-
-session{
- radutmp
- Session-Type SQL {
- sql
- }

+This allows Simultaneous-Use checking behaviour to be very flexible.
