hi Ivan, Just been able to restart witout affecting working sites, have started using -X and am seeing lots of info; for a start its binding to correct IP (which counters the multi-home issue i was concerned about). The sites that have probs are all reporting RADIUS ok, my query / concern is that why do some work and not others? Surely if it was routing / network stuff, none would work or all would work; unless the NAS is not behaving?
Was thinking about setting up another FR instance, separate IP and with just pure text (users) info but am not sure - what concerns me is seeing a few mails that have same symptoms (connect starts, then restarts after 10s) from other users but they dont seem to have got working. Have I upgraded FR (apt-get etc) and broken my config :( which I'm sure isnt true. Woudl setting up second FR be overkill, given stuff is working for other sites?
