I had the very same problem when I was implementing the smsotp perl
module. I only noticed when the system was already in production. As a
quick work around I limited the radius threads to '1'. And than I used
berkeley db to save the state. Have a look at the smsotp code, it only
took 30 minutes to implement. It is very straight forward. You can use
also a database like postgresql to obtain the same.
