Oh, definitely. We'd do that as a failsafe anyway. My main question is whether this is failing by design?

The intention is to *not* crash. But... FreeRADIUS is dependent on the libraries it uses. If they misbehave, then there's little we can do.

If so, is there a best practice to avoid the crash (or something like monit to recover from a crash)? And, if not, is it a resolvable bug?

Write Perl scripts that work, or track down exactly *why* it's crashing. The server runs as one process with multiple threads. So a crash takes down the entire server. Alan DeKok.
