2.1.7 is more aggressive about failing requests from one server to another when a home server goes down. See "no_response_fail" in proxy.conf. It's also more aggressive about *not* using zombie servers. It treats zombie servers as dead for new requests. i.e. it will retransmit the *same* request to a zombie server, but a *new* request will ignore the zombie server. That change was really made for stability. If a home server isn't responding, we shouldn't really be sending it new packets. Yes, this might break EAP. But if the home server isn't responding, it's not doing EAP already, right? Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
