it looks like i have tracked down the problem: i have set up a
completely identical redhat 7.3 box with freeradius-snapshot-20030702
with rlm_sql_oracle, which is connecting to the same oracle rac
cluster but from a different network segment. so the only difference
is that the connections between radius and oracle are going over a
different firewall.

this new radius hasn't had any difficulties since i started it up
about 24 hours ago. so this has got to be a network/firewall problem.

still i think that freeradius should be able to figure out when the
connections to oracle have died. to me it looks like it doesn't even
notice that the connections are gone, and keeps waiting for a response
from oracle.

is there a way i can tell freeradius to completely shut down the
oracle connections and re-establish them after n seconds of no
response? none of the settings i can configure in oraclesql.conf
changed anything. all i can do is kill radiusd, and once it comes back
up, the connections are re-established fine. shouln't this be possible
without totally killing radiusd?

many thanks,
randy

ps: i have also tried the latest snapshot (20030710) but there's no
difference in the behaviour. i went back to 20030702 because that's
the exact same version i'm running on the machine that's having
problems, to be able to rule out any other differences in the setup.
