  You should upgrade to 2.2.10.  It has a number of fixes, and it's 100% compatible \
with 2.2.0.

  See raddb/modules/exec, or raddb/modules/echo

  You can run arbitrary programs using those modules.

  e.g.

	if (Acct-Status-Type == Stop) {
		echo
	}

  Just copy "echo" to another file, and change the name "echo" to something else.
