How this will be done, by implementing RFC2869 support IMHO this would be the right way, because RFC 2869 definitely says: "Note that all information in an interim message is cumulative (i.e. number of packets sent is the total since the beginning of the session, not since the last interim message)." So sending interim update packets won't help. > looking for someone who supervises my patch and commit it if no problems > will be founded. this can be a problem :-) bye, -- ------------------------------- ---------------------------------- Michael Bretterklieber - http://www.bretterklieber.com A-Quadrat Automation GmbH - http://www.a-quadrat.at Tel: ++43-(0)3172-41679 - GSM: ++43-(0)699 12861847 ------------------------------- ---------------------------------- "...the number of UNIX installations has grown to 10, with more expected..." - Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson, June 1972
