tacacs+ / Too many iterations for choose_authen



Hi!

We just started to use cisco dial up terminal servers with tacacs+
to provide callback services for win95/nt clients.

Anyway, everything seems to be OK except to strange tacacs+ server
behaviour which runs on RH4.2 Linux box.

Here what I see in tacacs+ logs:
Sun Feb  1 13:17:36 1998 [16206]: exit status=0
Sun Feb  1 13:17:49 1998 [27787]: forked 16225
Sun Feb  1 13:19:50 1998 [16225]: Error ts.abirnet.co.il: Too many
iterations for choose_authen
Sun Feb  1 13:19:50 1998 [16225]: exit status=0
Sun Feb  1 13:20:03 1998 [27787]: forked 16466
Sun Feb  1 13:22:06 1998 [16466]: Error ts.abirnet.co.il: Too many
iterations for choose_authen

And this way it goes on for hours and sometimes causes for tacacs to die!
Did anyone see something similar before I dive into tacacs plus sources?
