(RADIATOR) radiusd crashes/dies

[Barrett (Barry) W Clark]

Hello,

On June 1st we upgraded to the 3.6-1 version of Radiator. (New box with RH 
and added SQL logging)

The box has been running flawlessly up until 1 1/2 weeks ago.

Radiusd just stops and is not listed in "top" or "ps".  We can restart the 
service and it will run fine for about 2 or 3 days and then die again.

The log files do not show anything out of the ordinary and I am currently 
running debug, hoping to catching it when it dies.

Any suggestions or hints on what could be causing this and solutions would 
be appreciated!

I am also looking into restartWrapper as well as contemplating replacing RH 
with FreeBSD.  Any thoughts / suggestions on restartWrapper and/or 
migrating to FreeBSD are welcome and appreciated!

Below is a copy of the current radius.cfg (no secrets)

Thank you!
