Yes it is a problem cos after a while of just leaving it the system is unable to make calls out via the PSTN, which is why I have spent time with the telco, more like wasted time, and played with zaptel's make options. After trying a few things I came to the temporary conclusion that it was the zaptel watchdog trying and failing to restart a hung channel.

All I can figure is that something I haven't yet figured is causing these processes to be created, and after a while there is so many that outgoing calls over zap can't be made.

We have it set on Fedora Core 1 systems (and equivalent vintage RHEL) because RedHat backported the 2.6 kernel threads to their 2.4 kernel, and loads of things broke (oracle 9i, java 1.3 etc) so we had LD_ASSUME_KERNEL 2.4.1 set to force the old (i.e. normal for a 2.4 kernel) behavior. If you are running asterisk on a stable 2.6 kernel you shouldn't set it. By the way, the cat /proc/*asterisk proc number*/environ | strings | grep LD_ASSUME_KERNEL only works if you are root, or whoever asterisk is running as. It gives an empty result if it has not got permission to read.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] multiple asterisk process ?
Asterisk is a multithreaded system. I have not in mind how many threads open and where. But ie, if you have enabled pbx_spool.so to generate calls from files, that module launch its own thread to monitor the calls directory, MOH launch other thread, every channel has its own thread, the CLI has its own thread, to listen for calls in SIP, IAX, you need specific threads etc, etc, i would say what you see is normal.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] multiple asterisk process ?
Hmm...my output for getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION is NPTL 2.3.4.. I don't know what it's mean anyway :P And for Lee, I'm configuring my asterisk through amp (now freepbx), but I do some custom configuration manually too ;) I guess Paul is right, I suspect there are bugs in asterisk that haven't been solved like "avoiding deadlock on iax" problem which I had mentioned before.. Unfortunately, I don't know how to recreate the problem so all I can do if the problem is happened just do some killall - 9 asterisk :(...

Asterisk is a multithreaded system but how the threads are handled by the OS depends on the version of threads that is being used. For Linuxthreads (kernel 2.4), one would see a separate entry for each thread when executing 'ps aux'. For NPTL (linux 2.6) one does not see each thread as a separate entry. So the OP must tell us which kernel version he is using. Alternatively type getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION as root. For NPTL u should get something like NPTL 2.3.5 or suchlike.
