(RADIATOR) Duplicate request detection?

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Jan -

You are correct - it is impossible for Radiator to do duplicate  
detection if the NAS equipment always sends different radius requests.

The duplicate detection code is in Radius/Client.pm if you are  
interested (sub handle_request).

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?
