Idle Timeout bug

I am seeing idle times far in excess of our set time out (25 minutes).
idle time out is set in both the portmaster and now in the radius
dictionary. This only happens (so far) on one particular portmaster
(our oldest one). This problem began after an upgrade to 3.3.2
Neither power cycling, reboots or sacrificing chickens helps.

I have seen up to 12 hours idle time. Obviously, our customers have
become used to starting that big file transfer and going to bed...

This problem is most annoying. Logging into this portmaster a couple
dozen times a day to knock off idle users is not a productive use of
my time :-)
