Hi! Kurt,

In a message to All you wrote:

I'm running "Radius v4.010/21.01.2005,13:56(Final-Release)" here.  Maybe
you're running an early Taurus[shrug]?

It is a hassle.  However you get the same sort of thing even with a bare binkD
task.

 KW> In Config->Polls->Options, I have Busy, No C. and Fail all set to 10.

Same here except for Busy, which is set for 99.  (I also have a couple of
nodes set to never poll; one in Poland, and the other in Canada.)

 KW> Does anyone have any suggestions?

Well, I've just increased my Radius' "Stand-Off minutes" option setting from
10 up to 25.  That might stop the log file filling up so much.  Who knows.  :)

Cheers,
Paul.
