(RADIATOR) FW: radiator access accept problems

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Surajh -

There are a number of possibilities, but without _much_ more 
information it is impossible to say.

The first thing to check is whether the access request actually gets to 
the Radiator host, then you need to check whether or not it got to 
Radiator itself, then you need to check what happened to the request 
when Radiator processed it.

Useful tools in this situation include tcpdump (or snoop or ethereal 
...) and a trace 4 debug from Radiator showing what is happening.

regards

Hugh

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