I have the same problem with the same solution. Running a Mandrake 9.2 box with latest smoke ping.
What could be possible causes of this ? How does one enable logging, and where does it log to ? I also read about debugging mode. How can one enable it ? Any help appreciated.

I did install a crontab entry that would periodically check if smokeping was alive and restarted it if needed. Something like : pgrep -xn smokeping > /dev/null || (smokeping --restart && (echo "Subject: smokeping is not running! Restarting at `date`" | sendmail -f sender recipient)) . Of course you can write something more elegant if you want... I run that (through crontab) every 30 minutes.
