No, cache was not enabled. Just a thought on the denying, I thought maybe it just couldn't get a good result one way or the other so it would just allow it. Any other thoughts on would could be causing this issue? Like I said this only seems to be happening on dsl customers that constantly try to connect. Is there any other logs, configs, etc that would be of any help? I will try to get a debug of one that doesn't behave properly. Is there a way to make that debug log to the log file. So far it only outputs to terminal and it's very hard to capture it there, it it's in a log I should be able to get something worthwhile.

  Maybe.  Did you enable "cache" in the "unix" module?  If so, have you
disabled it?

  
Is there a way to
tell the radius server that if it can't authenticate to deny it.
    

  Huh?  If the server can't authenticate the user, it denies the user.
Always.

  
I'm
wondering if the OS itself is getting overloaded causing this.
    

  No.
