Hi,
	We are using the "Merit RADIUS 2.4.23C" for authentication. The server is
running on a FreeBSD-2.2.2 x86 machine and we use a 3COM (US Robotic's)
Total Control as a port terminal server. The problem is simple: each time a
user try to authenticate and don't have the right password or the right
user name, the Radius Server exit (on signal 11) and Core Dump. There's
currently a script that check every 2 minutes if the Radius is still
running and restart it if needed. Here is an example of I took from my logs:

/var/log/messages:
------------------------------------
Mar  1 17:48:21 mail /kernel: pid 1645 (radiusd), uid 0: exited on signal
11 (core dumped)
