Hi

I’m using freeradius 2.1.12 with external program calling for auth, pre-auth and acct

A while after radius up, it reports:

Sat Nov 26 13:02:03 2011 : Error: Couldn't fork /etc/netbill/acct.pl: Cannot allocate memory

The machine is:

12 G ram, CentOS 5.4, Kernel  2.6.18-164.el5PAE  32 bits

Vmstat shows at least 6.8G FREE:
