We have an unfortunate problem that's been keeping the network team up
at night.  Currently, we monitor our RADIUS servers 24x7 to ensure that
our network is always accessible.  However, in the middle of the night,
our RADIUS traffic is so little that the requests from the monitoring
server makes up the bulk of it -- and after upgrading to freeradius 0.5,
these requests are still in the server cache, causing freeradius to view
them as duplicates and treating them as such... so that at 3 am, the
'duplicate authentication reply' being sent never quite makes it to the
radius client.

I assume there's some server bug involved here, either in the source or
in my cache configuration (or both).  At the moment, though, I'd be
happy if anyone has a monitoring script they'd like to share which
doesn't trip freeradius's 'duplicate request' sensor.

Cheers,
