Paul,

One word:  SQL
(ok, that's an acronym, but you get the picture)

There's several patches availiable for cistron radiusd, including one I put
together against 1.6.1-STABLE

Once you've got your accounting into sql, it's a trivial matter to generate
all kinds of reports for many different purposes:

- Get users connection information for the
  day/week/month/year (by username or clid)
- Allow users to see how much time they're online
- See how many unique users log in per huntgroup
- Get stats on connect/disconnect information
  (depends on your NAS, most don't seem to provide
  this information through radius)
- Quickly determine if people are sharing accounts

We've been doing it for a couple years now, and it's become a tool that our
helpdesk and billing dept can not live without.

You can see my ugly (but very functional) code at:
	ftp://ftp.i-plus.net/pub/radiusd-cistron-sql/

You can retrieve the 1.6.1 source from:
	ftp://ftp.freeradius.org/pub/radius/


G'luck,

Troy

** Does anyone have or know of any Cistron Radius log tools?
**
** We're looking for ways that a user could tell how much time they've used
** in the current month, last month etc. etc...
**
** Also, for billing purposes we could figure out their hourly usage each
** month when they logged in etc. etc.....
**
** Thanks,
