I am currently running FreeRadius 0.4 on both Solaris x86 2.6 on a dual-processor Xeon machine, and FreeBSD 4.3 on a single processor P3 machine. FreeBSD is marginally more stable. That is to say that Solaris has hung once, whereas FreeBSD has never hung... I suspect that Solaris would have hung more often if I had not moved the load fro Solaris to FreeBSD. -- Roy Hooper Project Manager & Senior UNIX Consultant Decisive Technologies Inc.

We had just a couple of issues with SQL accounting (back to flat-text logging). Everything else (we use pam and ldap autentication) is just fine! Two P3 1Ghz servers for something around 400k users. Machine load is under 20% doing autentication on ldap.
