Don't feel bad.  I have seen this same problem with Funk Steel Belted
Radius.  It is not you, it is the wholesale providers.  They don't seem
to care about radius accounting packets.  They will tell you that you
can down load your logs every day to get access logs.

Subject: [VOPRadius] Time Bank


* This is the VOP Radius mailing list *
Would love to hear from some on the list that are using Time Banking
with
VOP Radius. We have been using it for some time but see terrible
accuracy.
We are using it 100% with wholesale network providers like Qwest and
such.
We are well aware of the problems associated with time banking,
outsourced
POPs and lost stop packets etc. We still think it should be MUCH more
accurate than it is. We use more than one network provider/aggregator
and
see very poor results with all of them when it comes to time banking.

We have tried many things to increase the accuracy like placing our
Radius
server in different facility with better connections to the net overall.
We
have tried putting our Vop Radius on a machine with more horsepower and
so
on. Nothing seems to help really..

Are we doomed to basically never have any useful usage data for our subs
as
long as we use outsourced POP's or is this a problem with Vop Radius and
their Time Banking. The reason I ask is because I have had several
people in
the past laugh when I said I was using Vop Radius for time banking.
Basically they said it downright did not work for beans. So, I am not
suggesting this is the problem, just trying to see how many of you use
it
and actually feel it's accurate. It makes it very difficult to run our
business with basically useless usage data in our Radius DB.

Any input on this is appreciated.

Thanks,
  Todd
