Looking in the radius

reported as

probably. But could there
Been lurking and wading through the list, but must ask if anyone has seen a
double termination reason.
What I mean is that you see:
Oct 26 04:20:49 pm1 portmaster: port S0 terminated - User Request - PPP Term Req
Oct 26 04:20:52 pm1 portmaster: port S0 terminated - Lost Carrier
Anyone else seen this?
There are quite a few and I will need to write another script to find these
and see if there is a pattern,but my guess is that the user's system does
not wait for the Ack and disconnects.
