And so for the last week I have been happily using cvs20050929 with a couple one liners. This morning logs look like this: Fri Oct 7 08:29:29 2005 : Error: !!! ERROR !!! The server is blocked: discarding new request 181169 Fri Oct 7 08:29:29 2005 : Error: !!! ERROR !!! The server is blocked: discarding new request 181170 Fri Oct 7 08:29:30 2005 : Error: !!! ERROR !!! The server is blocked: discarding new request 181171 Fri Oct 7 08:29:30 2005 : Error: !!! ERROR !!! The server is blocked: on and on (any idea why? this never happened before [ before means cvs from 20050316 ]) so I executed /etc/init.d/freeradius stop and got the above assert. Apparently a gracefull exit is hard to do if the server has blocked threads? Where should I start looking? Thanks, Joe
