Dale,

I would like to make an online usage graph like the MRTG one at
http://www2.nw.com.br/modems/pm.3.html but I don't know if MRTG could access
RRAS's info.

So, I would want to base the graph on the Calls table populated by RadiusNT.
I've been pushing my brain to the limit on how to do it, but I just can't
think of a neat, clean-cut SQL-based way of doing it.

All I've figured out so far is to programmatically create a "Stack" table
and "Push" values ( Calldate, NasPort, Username ) in for each login, along
with an incrementing counter value ( to indicate increase in number of ports
being used ). For each logout, I would "Push" a row also, but this time
with decrementing ctr value ( to indicate a decrease in ports in use ).

Then after this "Stack" table is populated, I would simply use Crystal
Reports Web Report to graph the increasing / decreasing Counter value
against their associated Calldate's.

Can you show me a better way of doing this ?
