Radiator should only try to directly query the NAS if you are enforcing strict
simultaneous use with a NasType set for your Client clauses. If you don't have
a NasType set, it won't be queried.
And when you mention stuck sessions, are these really stuck on the NAS, or are
they simply remnants in the session database?
It would be useful to see a copy of your configuration file (no secrets)
together with an example trace 4 debug showing what is happening.
BTW - the latest version of Radiator is 2.16.1.
cheers
