(RADIATOR) Stop Records

[Andrew]

Thanks Hugh, we are generating accounting alive records. I guess to achieve
what I want the NAS would have to have an option to renegotiate an
accounting session after say 24 hours in order to generate the new session
ID (Acct-Session-Id). Would you agree with that? Or can the session ID only
be negotiated during authentication?

I was just hopeful that maybe radiator had some neat trick to help out
(since it usually does) with this issue.
