(RADIATOR) problems with radiator 3.0

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello TDN -

You have specified the "Fork" parameter in the AuthBy RADIUS clauses in your 
configuration file, which will cause the radiusd process to fork for every 
proxied request. You should *not* use Fork with AuthBy RADIUS because the 
clause itself does asynchronous IO on the socket used to proxy the requests.

regards

Hugh
