Accounting packets may be re-transmitted by the NAS. They may be received multiple times by the server, and recorded multiple times. The default configuration *should* catch most of these cases, and record only one set of information for a session. But some NAS equipment tries hard to send broken accounting requests to the server. Look at the "detail" logs to see which packets get recorded multiple times. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
