(RADIATOR) Session Database and MaxSessions

Mon Mar 3 14:55:35 CST 2003

Hello Dan -

This looks very odd.

What version of Radiator are you running?

And can you send me the contents of the session database and a more 
complete trace 4 showing the startup messages and also what happens 
when you have a clean session database? I will need to see multiple 
access requests together with the corresponding accounting starts and 
accounting stops.

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
