freeradius crashing issue - malloc failures?
Hi everyone, I seem to be having a problem with FreeRADIUS crashing. This time, it crashed on Saturday. I noticed it was down this morning and was able to bring it back up. This time difference allowed me to go through the log and see what happened when it crashed on Saturday. Here's the snippet from the log.. I'd appreciate any assistance in debugging this issue.

Your system is running out of memory. This is bad. If you're not using 2.0.5, upgrade to 2.0.5. Alan DeKok.

Alan DeKok. Alan, Thanks for the response. From what I can tell, my system isn't running out of memory. There are plenty of other processes that would mess up if that were happening. That being said, I'm running 1.1.7, so I suspect I'm due for an upgrade, anyway. I'm curious as to why Red Hat's repositories still only have version 1.1.3, though. Ryan

Fedora (F-9) is current with the 2.0.5 release (in the testing repo). When you say Red Hat's repositories only have 1.1.3 I presume you're referring to RHEL 5. RHEL is an "enterprise" release and in the interest of stability for enterprises the policy is not to update the versions of software which originally appeared in the initial enterprise release. Instead critical bug fixes are backported into the older version on a case by case basis. Occasionally a component in an enterprise release will undergo a version upgrade but this is the exception rather than the rule. With respect to FreeRADIUS 2.x the configuration is not compatible with the 1.1.x version adding another reason why enterprise installations cannot be updated because manual intervention by the administrator would be required, once again violating the "enterprise contract". That said there has been some internal discussion about whether to offer the 2.0.5 version in RHEL as an optional out of band update. Contact your technical account manager (TAM) to express interest in this. -- John Dennis <jdennis@redhat.com>
