          So I did all you said except noresetcounter which I am not sure where it is. It does not seem to work.

            Alright try this

            Set Accounting to Stop/Start (FreeRadius)

            Enable Reauthenticate connected users every minute

            in radcheck table

            –---------------------------------------
            john | Simultaneous-use | := | 1

            forget about noresetcounter

            also works for me

              Hi, thanks for the replies.
              I will test Start/Stop radius accounting again, but as I said before, this makes users timeout since Last Activity is broken.

              @jaspras If you say it works for you, the only possibility I can think about is a regression in the update from freeradius2 package to 3.
              Then my only option seems to be a clean reinstall.

                  Pasting where ?  ;D

                  I strongly advise you to use phpmyadmin.
                  Or you could use the mysql command line to INSERT, the web is filled up with zillion examples how to do that.

                  Edit : and where are the logs ??

                      This is my source : https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b&ei=rCDoWsrZPMamsAGTxL64Bg&q=FreeRadius++Simultaneous-Use&oq=FreeRadius++Simultaneous-Use&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0i7i30i19k1l4j0i7i10i30i19k1j0i7i30i19k1j0i19k1l3j0i30i19k1.7776.7776.0.8408.1.1.0.0.0.0.122.122.0j1.1.0….0...1.1.64.psy-ab..0.1.120....0.LJD31UiPcwU (sorry, you have to read a little bit, many people are posting about how not to do it …)

                      So, after some reading, you'll discover that you should add at the top of the "users file" this :

                      DEFAULT Simultaneous-Use := 1
                       Fall-Through = Yes
                      

                      This can be done using the FreeRadius package like this (edit the first user !) and then add this : see image.

                      Over there is also explained why and how to use the command separator, the "|".

                      Btw : another solution would be using a sql table, and setting for each user the "Simultaneous-Use := 1" or assign user to a group and make that group using "Simultaneous-Use := 1". This all works.

                          If you edited the first user on the Radius list, you should have this when you inspect the "users" file :
                          see image.

                          I limit users to 2.

                          edit : I also limit every user to 200 Mbytes a day.

                            Yep, it does not work

                            Moreover what I want to accomplish is different limit per user.

                            Also I do have checked "Send RADIUS accounting packets to the primary RADIUS server." and start/stop freeradius

                                  Those are placeholders from when the old forum transitioned to the new one. Images from old posts were lost.

                                    Can you help me with the settings for accounting with MySQL database?
