SV: recommended restart-wrapper for freeradius

[Svein Hansen]

I have the same problem..

I made a simple shell script that runs every 5 min.(crontab)

#! /bin/bash

if ! [ -n "`radtest username passwd localhost 10 secret | grep TRAPEZE`" ]; then
        service radiusd restart
fi

"TRAPEZE" i s the name of the user-assigned vlan..
rad_recv: Access-Accept packet from host 127.0.0.1:1812, id=39, length=29
        Tunnel-Private-Group-Id:0 = "TRAPEZE"

Modify the line/word you want to grep if authentication works...

hi - we're having the freeradius 1.0.2 daemon dying occasionally for mysterious reasons - we're still investuigating the cause.

however - when it dies the radiusd.pid file is not removed. this causes problems for most restart-wrappers ...

running in the foreground in an infinite loop is also not ideal as this means the daemon doesn't run in threaded mode.

can anyone recommend a good way to monitor/restart the daemon.
