When PacketFence is restarted by init script or by `pfcmd service pf restart` it sends SIGTERM signals to all the packetfence daemon. What you see here is standard daemon stop (or restart) log entry. However, it should not 'constantly crash'. pfmon should always be running when PacketFence does. # ps -ef | grep pfmon root 7369 1 0 Jan12 ? 00:00:00 /usr/bin/perl /usr/local/pf/sbin/pfmon -d -- Olivier Bilodeau obilod...@inverse.ca :: +1.514.447.4918 *115 :: www.inverse.ca Inverse inc. :: Leaders behind SOGo (www.sogo.nu) and PacketFence (www.packetfence.org) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
