Hi Tony Chamberlain,
I think I would make a script for /etc/rc.d/init.d/ and launch (link
from) /etc/rc.d/rcN.d/ (one call to kill - one call to start as per
the rules for all files in /etc/rc.d/init.d/).
To watch, how about a script launched by crond (or whatever is
appropriate for your check timing) using the value of a system
variable talked to by your new script launched from /etc/rc.d/init.d/.
The protocol might be something like - program sets it to 1 - watcher
notes one and sets to 2 - watcher notes 2 as OK and sets to 3 .. 99 .
0..99 - if the watcher notes the variable not changed as it expects it
can then check with ps aux | grep program and determine the status of
the program and kill and relaunch as necessary logging it's action and
reason.
Have fun!
Tod

If I could choose I would like to the new user name to flash, and not the c=
urrently open user tab.
Currently, it makes me unminimize the current window, and check who is talk=
ing, and having some kind of bot/chat room, with nothing interesting, its p=
retty lame.
