The problem is that the NAS is sending about 3 requests before getting a response. By the time the deny arrives, it is out of order and the NAS logs an unexpected packet (though it correctly denies the user). I am wondering if disabling all authentication/authorization methods except chap/mschap would solve this by speeding the response time. The server is not the speediest machine... 1 GHZ processor/1GB ram, but is dedicated for freeradius except for serving some static web pages. I have never seen system usage stats above nominal levels.

  Edit "radiusd.conf".  Set "reject_delay = 0".

  This is fixed in 2.0.0
