11.2 is really really old, wow. That predates even the 11.3 docs, which was about the first release that was marginally functional for a NAS. 11.3 and later ( 12.0, 12.1, 12.2 ) all have the command: aaa accounting delay-start which causes the nas to wait until it has an IP assigned.

You may need to modify/update your 'sql.conf', so that the username is pulled correctly from the packet. See the part where it discusess the options you can use to set what values ( and what order it tries ) to find the username to use. -Chris -- \\\|||/// \ StarNet Inc. \ Chris Parker \ ~ ~ / \ WX *is* Wireless! \ Director, Engineering | @ @ | \ http://www.starnetwx.net \ (847) 963-0116 oOo---(_)---oOo--\------------------------------------------------------ \ Wholesale Internet Services - http://www.megapop.net - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
