Hi Jeremy You may want to try adding enable echo enable lqr echo set lqrperiod 15 to your ppp.conf man ppp may also help This will close the ppp session if the customer connection drops and radius should then send the accounting data You should be getting your accounting data regardless, when the session expires. You will need to provide more info as to how you have your radius setup if that doesnt work Regards Tim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeremy Tregunna" <jtregunna@blurgle.ca> To: <freebsd-isp@freebsd.org> Sent: Thursday, December 21, 2006 1:14 AM Subject: RADIUS/PPPoE Dead Connections > > I've got a FreeBSD NAS and a FreeBSD RADIUS server (both running 6.1) > serving up access to a wireless network.
