Hello All,

I have a VRRP cluster (both IP650s) running IPSO 3.7 build 29  and NG-AI
build 315. I was getting performance issues one day and after investigating
I saw that in.asessiond had been using way too much CPU on the primary box
in the cluster, and I've had a gazillion messages in asessiond.elg saying
"snauth_cmain:failed to open server socket !: Address already in use". The
really strange part is that it seems to have started exactly when I exited
out of smartview tracker on the management server! That's bizarre because
the problem isn't happening on the management server but on an enforcement
point. It's probably just be a coincidence but I'm not ruling a connection
out.

I've tried to debug in.asessiond, which is spawned by fwssd but that doesn't
work. When I debug fwd I see that it's constantly restarting in.asessiond
but it doesn't give a reason why. The "address already in use" message seems
to point to an IP replication problem but I don't see replicated IPs
anywhere.

I did a cpstop/cpstart and it seems to have cleared up the problem (at least
for now), but I need to know what the problem is in case it re-occurs.

The strangest thing is I don't use session authentication and never have! Is
there a purpose of in.asessiond besides session authentication? What may
have caused this problem and how do I prevent it from re-occuring? I could
just comment out the in.asessiond line in my $FWDIR/conf/fwauthd.conf file,
but what problems could that cause?

Thanks in advance,

Greg Pendergrass
