Sounds like the NAS is not sending an accounting stop packet when the connection dies 
(for whatever reason).  This is not a Freeradius problem (how could it know?)...

Hi,

I'm running freeradius and have 3 NAS (POPTOP) servers connecting to this server. I 
find when a user disconnects because they out of wireless signal or they unplug their 
wireless card, the system shows them as still logged in and I dont get the final 
bandwidth usage, I have to manualy delete the start request from the mysql radacc 
table.

Thanks
Barry

Then the NAS does not send an accounting-stop in that case. There isn't anything
you can do to the radius server to fix that problem. You could use the
dialup_admin/bin/clean_radacct script to clear stale open sessions though but
that's only a workaround.

Are you sure the NAS does not eventually timeout the session?


 Thanks
