ok michal, i do see your reply in the archive, thank you. i must investigate why i am not getting all the posts via email, maybe its better for me just to review them there. anyways, i use the accounting package from aivis. on 2.2.3 when i send up the auth request to radius it checks the incomming caller IP and also checks for a rate in a rate table file that used to contain a rate code based on the re-written dialed number. after i switch to 2.2.5 calls did not work. in the experiment i added a rate code that matched the non-rewritten number and then i now get back a ack from the radius server. this is what lead me to believe that some how now the new radius message in the setup request now contained the non-rewritten number. calls and such proceed normally once i pass the alias-auth issue. thanks ray ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
