freeradius child processes
Hello, I am using freeradius (1.0.2) with the mysql backed on debian sarge. I noticed that after starting freeradius I can not see the different processes of the radius daemon which are started. The thread pool is configured as follows: thread pool { start_servers = 5 max_servers = 32 min_spare_servers = 3 max_spare_servers = 10 max_requests_per_server = 0 } When starting the radius server with the option -x I see the message Initializing the thread pool... Is this because freeradius is using multiple threads within one process, and only one process is visible in the process list? However on a different server with a very similar configuration ps aux will list me several freeradius processes which are running. Is there a way how to see how many threads are currently running?

Yes. This is a feature of Linux 2.6.

Yes. This is a feature of Linux 2.4.
