Interrupted connection stops TekRADIUS listening

Hi!
We've started using TekRADIUS together with an MS SQL Server database to manage the users for our hotspot, as it's much better than the ancient version of WinRadius we have been using, and it's working great so far.
The only problem we have noticed is that when the network interface TekRADIUS is set to use goes down (for example when someone restarts the router the machine it is running on is connected to) it of course stops listening, but when the interface comes back up (which TekRADIUS definitely notices, as it's logged in its log file) it doesn't resume listening, i.e. someone has to stop and restart the TekRADIUS service by hand... 
Here's what gets written to the logfile when I reproduce the above in a VM:
02.08.10 13:13:25 - TekRADIUS LT Service 3.7.0.0 is being started (Microsoft Windows NT 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3).
02.08.10 13:13:45 - Listened IP Address is being changed from 10.1.0.3 to 10.0.2.15
02.08.10 13:13:45 - IP address configuration has been changed!
02.08.10 13:13:53 - Listened IP Address is being changed from 10.0.2.15 to 10.1.0.3
02.08.10 13:13:53 - IP address configuration has been changed!
Is there a way to automate restarting the service when the IP address is changing?
Kind regards,
Kurt Pruenner

Hi,
Please do following;
- Stop TekRADIUS service.
- Go to TekRADIUS directory make a backup of existing TekRADIUS.exe
- Download and copy contents of http://www.tekradius.com/release/TekRADIUS-M.zip to TekRADIUS directory.
- Start TekRADIUS service
- Replicate the IP Address change scenario.
- Send me TekRADIUS log entries.
Best regards,
Yasin KAPLAN

Thanks for the swift response! 
And yes, it worked:
03.08.10 11:41:25 - TekRADIUS Service 3.7.0.0 is being started (Microsoft Windows NT 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3).
03.08.10 11:41:27 - TekRADIUS Service is listening on : 10.0.2.15 (2 client(s))
03.08.10 11:42:08 - Listened IP Address is being changed from 10.0.2.15 to 127.0.0.1
03.08.10 11:42:08 - IP address configuration has been changed.
03.08.10 11:42:46 - Listened IP Address is being changed from 127.0.0.1 to 10.1.0.3
03.08.10 11:42:46 - IP address configuration has been changed.
RadAuth req. from : 10.1.0.1:50238 - 03.08.10 11:43:19
Size : 44 / 44
Identifier : 0
Attributes :
User-Name = test
03.08.10 11:43:19 - Check items control - Start (Group : Default).
03.08.10 11:43:19 - Check items control - Stop (Group : Default).
03.08.10 11:43:19 - Authentication successfull for user 'test'
Thanks a lot! I guess this change will also be in version 3.8 whenever it is released?
Kind regards,

Hi,
I'm very glad to hear that. Although this fix will be officially available in the next release I've also updated existing built.
