Thanks Richard and all those who responded. I have joined the list. The
problem I am having is not exactly one with VOP Mail it is just in the
combination of it with IEA's RadiusNT with concurency turned on. The Radius
server doesn't care where the request comes from, the NAS or VOP, it just
allows 1 person to log in with a user name and sends a deny to all others.
Since the customer is logged on, when he checks his mail and VOP sends a
request to radiusNT for auth. it is then denied. the only "cure" is to turn
off concurency or to set login limit to 2 This of course defeats the
purpose.
again Thanks for the help.

Jerry:
Okay, I understand now. I presume that IEA's RadiusNT think that our
authentication request is actually a PPP login, thus causing problems. We'll
have to see if there is a way to bypass this (beside turning concurrency
checking off or using our Radius Server). One thing, if you are using
RadiusNT against an ACCESS database, then you could use VOPMAIL's ODBC
interface instead of RADIUS authentication and that would fix your problem
with concurrency.

Does anyone have suggestions for a network monitoring software that will
alert us if there is trouble? For example, I'm looking at Attention
Software (www.attentionsoftware.com) does anyone have experience with this
software? Any suggestions for other packages?

I have a customer who has several locations in the
U.S. We want to setup a VPN using ISP's. The main
location is near us which will connect with an ISDN router.
The problem is they want encryption. I know Ascend and
Cisco both have encryption capabilities for ISDN routers
but not for analog devices. The remote locations need to be
connected analog to the local ISP. Does anyone know of a
solution that has analog and ISDN routers that will do
encryption and talk to each other?
Thanks for any help.

Using RADIUS to authenticate mail requests is using RADIUS for something
it was not designed to do. The mail package should be hitting the
database,
not the RADIUS server.

I saw a list post once about IIS taking up 100% of CPU power once. We arehaving the same problem. We installed an intranet on IIS on an NT 4machine, and watched it take up 100% and slow all other operations down.Anyone have any suggestions?

Do you have the index server running? When we installed it it wanted toindex everything and run the CPU up to 100%, turned off the indexing foralmost everything and its fine now.
