Here is an update… I have created an entirely new account that has NO history and yet I get same issue.

Following in radius.log

Wed Oct  1 17:51:46 2008 : Auth: Invalid user (rlm_sqlcounter: Maximum monthly usage time reached): [njale/<CHAP-Password>] (from client OldPPPOES port 40541 cli 00:0C:29:0B:44:66)

I kept increasing the data limit via dialupadmin till it allowed me to connect…

Ideas?
