Re: missing username in squid log

Pherhaps i wasn't clear.
I know how sql queries work, i'm able to write down a select query, this is not the question. What i mean is that, looking at the actual access.log file, it seems squid hasn't enough details to filter RADACCT table and extract the right record. I think that the only way is having somewhere in squid files both nat ip and local ip, as in RADACCT records. For the duration of each session nat ip+local ip are associated uniquely to one username.
Comparing date and time i could extract a unique record.

p.s.: i hope i responded to the right address this time, and thanks for previous answers

How can the external script find the rigth username?
In radius db i have the RADCHECK table containing all user registered, and RADACCT table where you find a record for every session.

Take that above sentence, replace "where you find" with "where script finds".

Each record in RADACCT shows a lot of data (username, nat ip, local ip, time of start and end of each session, etc.) but how squid can match a page request with database entries to retrieve username?

By looking up the details Squid has and finding the matching record. Please find a beginners tutorial on how database queries work. It should cover how to find a database record by querying it with some few of the field details. The db_auth script I mentioned earlier does database queries. You adjust the script (either the code or teh command parameters passed to is in squid.conf) to create a query for the RADIUS database.
