Mike - I would try to verify that your radius server is in fact returing 
the attributes. Yes you can expect the radattr.so plugin to put 
everything it gets into the file as you noted, but since it's not there, 
the explanation is more than likely that your radius server is simply 
not returning those attributes at all in the first place.

If using freeradius, you can verify this simply by running 'freeradius 
-X' and watching the debug output. Although voluminous, its not too hard 
to pick out what it's doing and what it's sending back. Another way if 
you have it, use a (more recent) tcpdump to capture the output from your 
radius server;

tcpdump -lni ethXX -s1500 -vvv host <radiusserver> and port 1812

where 'XX' is on the path to your radius. You outta see the 
access-request and the access-accept response here.

By the way.. I am still looking for a decent script to establish 
per-user-session bandwidth controls. TC has always been so confusing to 
me I never get it right.
