Hi,
About 2 mounths ago I installed a RocketPort card (it's kind of multiport
card) that is connected with a 16 ports USRobotics modem pool.
I installed mgetty-1.0.0 and pppd-2.2.0f with radiusclient patch.
I have some problems with making pppd interact poperly with Cistron RADIUS
but in the end I have quite stable system that works.
The problem is that sometimes (2%-5% probability) pppd hangs, do not
respond to any system signals but only to KILL signal. When it hangs init
process is unable to respawn mgetty and the port to which the pppd has been
attached is dead.
I spend lots of hours in viewing and debuging pppd but nothing came up so
far and I really need help what to do. Most of the times when this happens
when I type
ps aux
the hung pppd shows more than 30% CPU usage.
I run Slackware 3.5 with kernel 2.0.35 with loadable moduls support and and
autoload modules compiled (that is required by RocketPort card).
I really wold be glad if someone could help me with that problem.
Thanks in advance.
