David,
Thanks for the fast response, been a busy morning and haven't had time to
reply till now.
We've been running for the last hour or so using -x15 -A ... and all is
working again. It looks like the users file is not being re-read into memory
after each addition of a new user account (or change). So, the current
workaround is to 1) add a new user, then 2) close and restart radius with
the switches above.
So, the heat appears to be off and connections are now OK. BUT, it seems to
now be *required* that we run radius from a command prompt. If I end that
process and close the window, we stop authenticating -- even though radius
is still running as a service (viewed through control panel/services).
Now I'm curious about what is the recommended procedure for starting and
running Radius, and what may have changed? Prior to our recent update to .60
-- like, for the last year or so -- Radius has started with NT as an
automatic service. We've never needed to run it before from a command
prompt. Does something like "net start radius -x15 -A" set those switches in
the registry, so that they load with radius automatically?
Thanks again,
-Ted
