Ok, you're right, but in my case I know the client session can't last more than 24hrs.
So, for me it's ok to remove all *inactive* entries older than that.

But, as far as I know, this seems to be impossible with gdm pool.
So, what the "maximum_timeout" parameter is useful for ???

Obviously, but I can't manage over that. It's out of my control.
So I need a method to avoid my pool being filled up by missing acct-stop.
Thanks again.
