> Dale kindly made the following changes in 2.5.160 to make our lives
> easier (smaller ;))
>
> * Added registry option AcctFormat. If this is set to 1, then
> RadiusNT
> uses a new, numerical based accounting file format that is one line
> per
> record. This format is MUCH more compact than the previous, and
> uses
> the numbers of the values rather than the names. It is designed for
> backend processing by a program and not meant to be easily readable
> by a person. Any other value besides 1 makes the format the old way
> (0, the old way, is the default).
>
>
> I have written a VB program to read these files and insert them
> directly into the Calls database. The program does the same as
> RadiusNT and dynamically adjusts the inserts into the database based
> upon the Accounting Fields available.
>
> I've just tested it against 144000 records and it works great - our
> SQL server was under maintenance for two hours, so we needed some way
> to still log the calls, and import them later.
>
> If there is sufficient demand for this program, I shall make it
> available via download, otherwise I'll mail it to you.
