NAME

       radsqlrelay - relay SQL queries to a central database server

SYNOPSIS

       radsqlrelay  [-?]   [-d  sql_driver]  [-b database] [-f file] [-h host] [-u user] [-P port] [-p password]
       [-1] [-x] file_path

DESCRIPTION

       radsqlrelay tails a SQL logfile and forwards  the  queries  to  a  database  server.  Used  to  replicate
       accounting records to one (central) database, even if the database has extended downtime.

       The SQL logfile is created by the rlm_sql_log module. The module must be configured in the radiusd server
       before you can use radsqlrelay.
