Thanks for the response. I get about 60 or 70 per minute. Will setting Allow Stop Only mess up my accounting logs? I am using mysql for auth and accounting and we track hours for some of our "Lite" customers.

This one is very likely to be the setting Ethernet -> Mod Config -> Accounting -> Allow Stop Only. Change it to No. (Thats for a MAX6000 anyway, it might be in a different place on a TNT) If you check your detail files you'll see entries like this: Fri Dec 21 10:36:03 2001 NAS-IP-Address = 202.49.244.254 NAS-Port = 10128 NAS-Port-Type = Sync Acct-Status-Type = Stop Acct-Delay-Time = 0 Acct-Session-Id = "314356832" Ascend-Disconnect-Cause = Remote-End-Hung-Up Ascend-Connect-Progress = 10 Ascend-Xmit-Rate = 64000 Ascend-Data-Rate = 64000 Ascend-PreSession-Time = 8 Ascend-Pre-Input-Octets = 0 Ascend-Pre-Output-Octets = 0 Ascend-Pre-Input-Packets = 0 Ascend-Pre-Output-Packets = 0 Ascend-Modem-PortNo = 1 Ascend-Modem-SlotNo = 9 Called-Station-Id = "0" Client-IP-Address = 202.49.244.254 Timestamp = 1008884163 Request-Authenticator = Verified Notice there is no User-Name, no Acct-Session-Time, the port number starts with a 1 instead of a 2, and the bogus data rate. (There are quite a few other attributes missing too) Basically this a call where someone dialed your NAS and hung up again without ever doing any "modem like" attempt to make a connection. Setting Allow Stop Only to no will prevent it being logged to the Radius server. Personally I leave it on as a debugging aid, because I rarely see it.
