radiusd-cistron here on 240 busy lines and we find
that radwtmp get's so out of whack the admin staff
have to completely ignore it... they only use it to
find a users IP number if the user reports online
difficulties (connected but can't surf).
We suspect (but can't prove yet) that we are losing
around 5% of accounted logins (twice my wage) but
luckily no one knows how to get the right data out
of the Cisco 5300 NAS to actually compare, otherwise
I'd get the bullet.. and possibly a bill for the
missing 5% of unaccounted sessions and data.
I'm really hoping freeradius is "better".
