Hi! Björn,

It's infinitely better than the way binkD minces multiple sessions into a
single logfile.  Radius's IP logs are easily handled in my pre-maintenance
BAtch, like so...

[ ... ]
    COPY /Y ip_*.log IP-Calls.Log
    FOR %%N IN (ip_*.log) DO IF EXIST %%N DEL %%N
[ ... ]

During maintenance, the "IP-Calls.Log" file is posted to a local echo and then
archived in a daily ARJ.  Simple.

BTW, I do have a BATch that can de-splice a binkD logfile.  :)

Cheers,
Paul.
