 You should upgrade to 2.2.10.

 FreeRADIUS doesn't invent accounting data.  It receives accounting data from the NAS.  It then stores that data in the DB.

 So if the data in the DB is wrong, it's because the NAS sends the wrong data.

 What you *can* do is to check:

	if ((Acct-Status-Type == Interim-Update) && Acct-Stop-Time) {
		update request {
			Acct-Stop-Time !* ANY
		}
	}

 Put that at the top of the "preacct" section, and it should help.  You might need to edit it for v2... I haven't used that in years.

 You should be able to build a new system, and then swap it over.
