That's not what a svc_acct service means, necessarily.  A svc_acct 
service just means a username/password pair.  Presumably you are 
authenticating these users via RADIUS and you have a RADIUS export, so 
you need an svc_acct service definition that exports to RADIUS.

That's the recommended configuration in most cases.
