Which version are you running?

What sort of config do you have - do you do any proxying? SQL? LDAP?

As others have said, you should run it in debug mode - "radiusd -X" and 
see what happens. However, you may find this generates a lot out output 
before it stops working, so investigate other tools to inspect the 
"sleeping" daemon - gdb, strace, etc.

I'm betting you're running an older version with bugs in it. 2.1.12 is 
the latest.
