I can see no pattern in my radius.log that is consistent for all of the
exits. As this server is fairly quiet /var/log/messages is really quite
empty:
an example
Dec 4 12:54:26 cata su: test to root on /dev/pts/1
Dec 5 05:14:57 cata kernel: pid 68292 (radiusd), uid 133: exited on
signal 11
Dec 5 08:39:50 cata su: test to root on /dev/pts/1
Dec 5 08:51:23 cata slapd[93791]: OTP unavailable because can't
read/write key database /etc/opiekeys: Permission denied
Dec 5 20:47:11 cata kernel: pid 79883 (radiusd), uid 133: exited on
signal 11
top is also similarly boring.....at the present, I don't know what it
looks like just after FreeRADIUS exits. I will investigate it next time
it happens.
Regards,
Hugh
