Bash script to update ‘simultaneous-use’ attribute value in BULK

Use following script if you want to change ‘Simultanous-Use‘ attribute value for *ALL* users.
I made it for a specific situation and was very successfull.

• It will check for mysql service running status
• then it will check mysql radius DB if its accessible ro not,
• then it will update the attribute value that we define in the script.

All is customizable, do it as per your requirements.

the Script !
