Ok -

I don't remember if this is happening on all routers or just this one. I also
assume that this device is production so debugging is out of the question. Can
you run a network trace on the acs server and see what you see?

        This is what I got when doing the show tacacs:
        
        SW2950#sh tacacs
        
        Server: 192.168.1.200/49: opens=0 closes=0 aborts=0 errors=2
                packets in=0 packets out=0 timeout=0 connection_fails=0 expected
replies=0
                no connection

                Have you looked into the 'Reports' -> 'Failed Authentications'
(might not be
                exactly these names). You should see all denied authentication
attempts and
                the reason for the denial there. You also need to set the router
up in the
                network groups as others have suggested.
                
                If you do a 'sh tacacs' on the router you should see if a tcp
session to the
                server exists.

                Just wondering:
                
                Your acs logs should not be blank Unless you are not logging
anything. You
                might
                want to turn them on. If they are blank then it's like the
service is not
                listening to requests or getting the request. Under reports and
activities
                what
                does the appliance status page state for the basic
configuration (tcp/udp
                ports
                open). Are the ports open?
                
                Are you filtering any ip addresses in the acs client setup?
