Ok guys, I "found something out".
There are 2 accounting services on a ZEN system, the pfacct service and radiusd-acct service, if you try to just start radiusd-acct then the result is the message flood shown in my first message. By default pfacct is running, it shows me the node in green or red if it's online or not. However, no accounting information is shown, port 1813 is listening. udp 0 0 192.168.2.28:1813 0.0.0.0:* 10817/docker-proxy Shutting down the pfacct and firing up radiusd-acct brings up this accounting service. udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1813 0.0.0.0:* 11568/freeradius However, no singnalling of the current online state is working anymore, also, now accounting information. Ok, switching back to pfacct - oops no singnalling anymore. Just after a reboot it works again. Can someone here tell a bit about these two services, why are they existing is this form, which one should be used... I could not find anything in the documentation about this.

It is impossible to start the radius accounting service, why is this so?
