FreeBSD tends to fill out RAM pretty soon, certainly a long time before running out of swap. Run top and see what it shows. It will certainly help you find when you're running out. And I would guess either a memory leak in radius, or possibly just not enough swap (how much do you have?). > The only other thing I can think of is that the scsi controller is > an ISA 1542 adaptec - is there any known problem with 3.2's driver > for this? Well, it's not the most modern board, but there's no way that driver problems could cause swap to fill up. Greg -- When replying to this message, please copy the original recipients.
