I would avoid BSD auth if possible. It uses UDP, so there is a bit of a race where amandad must wait around long enough to catch any new packets, but must exit at some point. Currently, this timeout is set to 30 seconds, but there may be (or have been) a particular case in which amandad can get "stuck" waiting for a new packet. The file-descriptor leaking is still a problem - amandad is in awful shape, to be honest - but zombie collection has improved somewhat (with band-aids, not a fix, but..)
