(RADIATOR) Radiator + Postgresql

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Jonathon -

It is your NAS equipment that is configured to retry radius requests  
- normally with a timeout and a number of retries.

Radiator simply responds to the requests that are sent to it for  
processing.

You should check the configuration of your NAS equipment.

It is also very useful to set up a test environment in which you can  
investigate various failure modes.

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
