[RADIATOR] Duplicate packets

[Mahmoud Abdelsalam]

Hello Hugh,

I am not handling start packets so they are ignored, as you may noticed 
in the debug, with some of them it receives duplicates with the same 
session ID while with some others it receives two-way duplicates, I mean 
it receives parent and child sessions at the same time and then 
duplicates for both, the child session has this cisco-avpair = 
"parent-session-id=id".

Also I handle stop packets, here is a DB dump:

and here is my config:

Best Regards,

Mahmoud Abdelsalam.
