Hi Ivan, We have many Chillispot systems, but as I mentioned before, combined, at the time it was approximately 14.
I was hoping that there would be some way to have checkrad do that for us, but since DD-WRT runs Chillispot and not Coova, we don't have access to a great utility Coova implemented which would be able to tell us what sessions it has active at the time. Since I wrote the email, I've learned more. It seems that the DD-WRT units reboot daily as their version of "Garbage Collection". It also seems that unlike Coova, the old Chilli did not send Accounting_On when it booted, and Accounting_Off when it was shutting down. I have to do some more log and file investigation, but I'm thinking that the combination of those 2 issues is whats causing all the "dirty" sessions. Since all the units send output to syslog, I'm thinking about having syslog output to a perl program that parses all the lines and if it sees the beginning of a DD-WRT reboot, it will forge an Accounting_On packet (If that is possible. I'm not sure if I'll run into the same issue I did with trying to run a radtest from the radius server with the IP and secret for a remote unit). I'll also see, but I'm sure it'll be pretty difficult, if I can convince the DD-WRT people to port the Accounting_On/Off function, and hopefully Coova itself!
