I have FR set up to auth/acct against MySQL. It appears to work fine in
a high load environment, most of the time.

Very, very occasionally FR appears to mis-process requests from the
NASes.

Even running FR in -X mode fails to catch the incoming/returned packets.
As far as FR is concerned, these sessions never happended.


That's wierd. Are you sure the NAS isn't configured with a secondary radius server that it may be sending these packets to?

No secondary server...

This is only happening with a very tiny % of requests.

I'm running out of ideas as to how to trace this problem. Any
suggestions are very welcome! I'm running FR 0.9.3.


You could try enabling detail auth_log and detail reply_log. That will capture all access request packets as well as all access accept packets that you send back. These are the actual authentication packets, rather than the normal detail file/sql that captures accounting. This would help you troubleshoot this.

I've done that too - and there's no record of the incoming RADIUS transaction, yet the NAS sees it!


Thanks for the suggestions.

best regards, josh.
