Sorry, should have included that before.
I've just upgraded to 1.1.5, compiled from source with nothing extra
added. Although I did just do a make install without doing an
uninstall on the old 1.1.2, could that effect it?

In the section of logs that I showed you could see the client out:FAIL
after the allow_nets check but a cache hit immediately afterwards
would allow the account to login. Even if I set the auth_cache_ttl to
15 seconds it would still fail the allow_nets check and then get a
cache hit and be logged in.

If there's any other information I can provide please let me know.

Thanks
Guy
