This week i was asked to configure radius accounting as a source for user-ip mapping. I was very surprised to see that this is not nativly supported. In lots of ways it is the one of the nicer ways to be able to get user-ip mappings. And as other vendors do have this implemented i assumed PA would surly have it as well...
Even though there are ways around this i feel this is a serious shortcoming.
I have seen more people strugling with this and i would love to see other people confirming my post and who also would like to see this feature implemented.

It's not Native, but there is a way to use RADIUS accounting logs for UserID:

Thanx for the reply jvalentine. Yes i found that article too. And i also know you can do it with intermediate kiwi syslog box. I can also implement it myself (make it more like a deployable appliance). I know there are lots of ways of getting it to work with an extra server in the middle, but you would need two extra boxes for redundancy, which need extra attention and it seems so unnecessary considdering the amount of code it would need on the box.
