BTW - we have many customers with several million users in SQL. > Q) How many requests/packets can Radiator entertain simultaneously ? > As mentioned previously, Radiator is single threaded, however it is common practice to run two instances of Radiator on the same host, one for authentication and the other for accounting. It is our experience that performance issues are almost always related to database speed (or lack thereof), or congested links that drop packets. There are some indicative performance numbers in section 24 of the Radiator reference manual. If you have any other questions, please contact me directly. regards Hugh -- Radiator: the most portable, flexible and configurable RADIUS server anywhere.
