Ok, you're right, but in my case I know the client session can't last more than 24hrs. So, for me it's ok to remove all *inactive* entries older than that. But, as far as I know, this seems to be impossible with gdm pool. So, what the "maximum_timeout" parameter is useful for ??? >The best solution would be to fix the NAS to send the packets or fix the >network to make sure they get delivered. Obviously, but I can't manage over that. It's out of my control. So I need a method to avoid my pool being filled up by missing acct-stop. Thanks again.
