[OpenSER-Users] Fw: Radius - prevent start record for ACK ?

[G.Jacobsen]

Just discovered an acc parameter which does the trick and suppresses ACK
accounting:modparam("acc", "report_ack", 0)Sorry for not reading
properly.Still I am confused why radius receives start records with ACK
before INVITE start records.CheersGerry----- Original Message -----
