When a PM send an accounting record, it sometime doesn't seem to receive
its ack soon enough from the Radius deamon and it resends it again even if
the record was accepted and acknowledged by the radius deamon. The result
of this is a duplicated key record tring to be inserted in the database.
For some reason, the OBBC database after being bombarded a few thousand
times per day with 10-20 duplicate records tends to grow at a fatastic
rate. A simple OBDC "compact" restores the size to normal. A 10mb
database can become a 800mb monster after a week and shrink down to 10mb
after a ODBC "compact"
I think one of the solution to the problem is to prolong the lenght of time
that the PM waits for ack from the radius deamon for an accounting record.
Can this be done and if so, how?
Another reason could be to use my SQL server by I'm not quite ready for
this. I like the portability and flexibility of ODBC for now. The login
authentification times are still very good.
Thanks in advance.
