[OpenSER-Users] [openser 1.3] loading module auth.so stop my server (bug?!)

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Pascal,

This is strange as it looks like your openser blocks in rand() 
function......AFAIK this function should not block at all....

To clarify this a bit, you can do 2 things:
    A) once blocked, attach with gdb and get a trace of the process
    B) run openser in strace (with fork support) and watch the output....

Regards,
Bogdan
