Request status check of auth+acct home servers sends Accounting-Requests to authentication port

[wflei]

If a home server is of type auth+acct and status check is configured to send requests in order to check if the server is alive, Accounting-Requests are sent to the authentication port of the home server. As according to the RFC the home server just drops accounting requests on the authentication port, a dead home server never returns to alive state.

This happens due to the check } else if (home->type == HOME_TYPE_AUTH) { in the ping_home_server function in process.c. Because the condition is not met, the } else { branch is used and an accounting request is sent, however to the port specified by the port option, which in case of an auth+acct home server is pointing to the authentication port of the home server.

Therefore the above check should be modified to include the home->type == HOME_TYPE_AUTH_ACCT case.
