Christopher, Thanks for the response. We can monitor the connections using netstat on the Oracle port, but I'm not sure that is what you mean.

It was connected last week and we stopped the process due to excessive database connections (an unrelated application issue) and now when we attempt to start it the last logged statement is "rlm_sql (sql): starting 0 rlm_sql (sql): Attempting to connect rlm_sql_oracle #0". Any ideas on how to see what's hanging up at this point? The database is on a remote server but I can ping that server with the host name used in the radius configuration.
