The SQL server lost a power supply on Sunday morning. I replaced it and
there didn't seem to be any problems. Monday I did a consolidation before I
did the upgrade of RadiusNT somewhere around that time is when it all went
bad. No hardware upgrades or change of IP's for some time although before I
did the consolidation I did a Report on all the boxes to clear Emerald
online so we could go to text only mode.

How do I check to see if the AcctSessionID's are messed up?
The database is 250Meg or so on a Duel PIII 450/384Meg (consolidation now
takes 30min instead of 14 hours).
