I use the package 'debian-goodies', within that package there is a binairy
called 'checkrestart'. It checks for changed service states and restarts
them if it has an init.d start script. If it doesn't have a script then
you'll get a message about it and then you can consider your own options to
restart the service.

Kind regards,
Kees
