Re: [Radiusplugin-devel] [Radiusplugin-users] Acct-Input-Octets and Acct-Output-Octets always 0 in Interim-Update

[Ralf lübben]

Hi,

thanks for the comment. Which version of the plugin do you use?

The current version in the CVS should replace the common name by the 
user name if the option is enabled in the OpenVPN config file.
The plugin reads the OpenVPN config file and checks for the option (see 
Config.cpp).

In radiusplugin.cpp you find the corresponding line by the comment 
"//rewrite the commonname if OpenVPN use the option username-as-comon-name".

You should also see the output "RADIUS-PLUGIN: FOREGROUND: Commonname 
set to Username" in your log file if the OpenVPN verbosity option is >= 
5 if you enabled "username-as-comon-name"

Can you possibly check that behavior? So I can fix the plugin.

Regards
Ralf
