First thing I would suggest is to check the log timestamp of that lost
connection against the timestamp of the initial connect for the same session.

Second would be to (temporarily) add BOTH a 'logwrite' AND a 'log_message' to
that acl clause to see if in fact it is even being involved in the incomplete
transaction.

You may be timing-out on a lookup, or some other acl than the one you are
looking for may be involved.
