Hello Matti -
The best way to see what is happening is to run Radiator by hand like
this (using the relevant pathnames of course):
cd /your/Radiator/source/distribution
perl radiusd -foreground -log_stdout -trace 4 -config_file /your/
Radiator/configuration/file
.....
This will show you any Perl error messages prior to the crash.
We include the restartWrapper utility in "goodies/restartWrapper"
that you can also use to catch error messages and restart radiusd.
BTW - the most recent version is Radiator 4.3.1 (plus patches).
regards
Hugh

NB:
Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
Have you checked the RadiusExpert wiki:
