This reminds me of something I forgot to mention in my previous message.
There's a radius server called Radiator which maintains a current- calls database for concurrency checking; it updates it with the accounting-start & stop records. To alleviate problems with lost packets causing it to get out of sync, it periodically checks the hub via SNMP and compares who's really on with who it thinks is logged on.
Pretty spiffy, if you ask me.
It is spiffy, but it's doesn't periodically check with the hub to see who's logged on (at least it doesn't in my version, I am running one rev back). Only when it's about to deny someone a login because they are exceeding their max session count does it go out and look to see if the other sessions are still up. Since radiator is single threaded, I'd think this could really cause a problem if the check is slow or hangs. -- Aaron Nabil - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
