Good day.

I use FreeRadius 1.1.0 with Oracle DB on

Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Update 3)

Kernel 2.4.21-20.ELsmp on an i686



I made a test load on server and everything is good when I start Freeradius
in

debug mode

# /usr/local/sbin/radiusd -X



top shows me

13:04:10  up 70 days,  1:06,  5 users,  load average: 1,77, 1,57, 1,88

114 processes: 111 sleeping, 3 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped

But when I start Freeradius in work mode

# /usr/local/sbin/radiusd  under the same test load

top shows me in 10-15 minutes:



11:50:27  up 69 days, 23:52,  3 users,  load average: 37,25, 30,91, 31,58

I see radiusd threads when do the command

#ps -efm | grep radiusd

in radius.log there are very many such string:

Fri Feb 17 12:08:40 2006 : Error: WARNING: Unresponsive child (id
1347701680) fo

r request 2937

and such string:

Fri Feb 17 12:06:16 2006 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to
use!

skipped 0, tried to connect 0



 My questions are:

1. What is the reason of such FreeRadius behavior? What must I do?

2. Why load of server during #radiusd -X is lover then during #radiusd ?

            Seems to be vice-versa?

3.How must I start FreeRadius to make many processes (not threads), maybe it
help me to decrease the load of server and to increase the speed of packets
handling



Thanks.
