Thanks I'll give that a try. The NAS I have is a Cisco 7204VXR with an NPE-G2 so I assume (hope) it supports Accounting Interim-Update. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thank you.
I believe our NAS supports this and is working. If I go into the user it will show they've been connected for days and shows and upload/download value.
That's not an indication of the nas suppoting Accounting Interim-Update. However, since even chillispot and openvpn supports Accounting Interim-Update, I don't see why whatever-NAS-you-re-using wouldn't support it. It would be just silly :P
The catch is the reporting. This data doesn't get updated into the statistics until the user logs off.
I'm sure it's something specific with Dialup Admin since it's built from the premise of a dialup ISP which will have typical log offs.
I was just curious if there is a config or change to make to Dialup Admin that would update statistics while an account is still logged on but not duplicate data.
Probably nothing. Try adding reply item "Acct-Interim-Interval := 300" to a test user (in radreply table, if you're using database backend), login, do stuff that uses bandwidth for 6 minutes or so, and check: - whether the NAS sends acct interim update (easiest if you can run FR in debug mode) - whether the acct entry is updated - whether dialup admin correctly displays the updated acct record -- Fajar - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
