Hiya
Since upgrading to the CVS version of 0.9.1 of FreeRADIUS we have experienced
intermittent problems which cause the freeRADIUS daemon to go into a CPU spin and stop
working. Logging also stops.

The only thing that has changed is the freeradius daemon, with the 0.9.0 code this
never happened dispite the same db processes being fired off, and infact doesn't
happen on our other server which we have left running 0.9.0. Only since the change to
0.9.1 (cvs) has this problem occured.
Any suggestions? or places to look?
could there be something left over in the sql.conf from 0.9.0 that is causing this?
it seems to be after x number of db using processes have ran this happens, I think the
4th time triggers this behaviour.
