The pam_radius module does not implement accounting at all.
This can be seen from the error message itself - the PAM system
complains that it could not find the pam_sm_acct_mgmt symbol (function)
within the pam_radius shared library. A quick look at
src/lib/libpam/modules/pam_radius/pam_radius.c shows that, indeed, it
only defines 'auth' and 'setcred' request handlers.

G'luck,
Peter

If there were no counterfactuals, this sentence would not have been paradoxical.
