The infringing pointer "mysql_sock" contains the return value of a "malloc" three lines above. Perhaps something messed up the memory so badly that malloc returns garbage. It's not easy to find out where the problem is : on my system (Debian), I can run radiusd in valgrind with num_sql_socks = 20 and I get no errors from valgrind. -- Nicolas Baradakis - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
