Well, you very well may consider it hokey, but we are developing code
around that very method currently. Right now, given the problems with
current Radius logging like missing stop records, etc.(yes I know it
only reports what it gets) we have found querying the portmaster and using
the output the most effective method of tracking usage, multiple logins, etc.
And as an added benefit, the code actually seems to be working very well.
