Hello Janet -
What data is contained in the AcctFailedLogFileName file? Did it actually
catch the accounting data? Notice that this will only catch accounting stops
as sessions end, and as the debug shows, Radiator will not retry the
connection for 10 minutes (600 seconds) - did you wait that long to see if it
would re-establish?
regards
Hugh
