Hi all

I've been looking for a program to restart apache, postfix and my other server

sourcecode for sysutils/monit and sysutils/monitord but they seem to 
need /proc and insist on poll instead of using kqueue(2) and kevent(2). So 
before I start coding my own, can someone recommend a port or tell me why 
kevent(2) shouldn't be used for this?

Program for restarting stopped/crashed daemons

And what is exactly wrong with /proc running?

I have had procfs turned off, but our content management application 
does need to have access to /proc, because in its management of 
processess (fastcgi app with custom management of cron processes of its 
own) it have not been able to manage them without it. We used 
alternative like p5-Proc-ProcessTable, but it did sometimes render our 
system unusable, userland unresponsive (although kernel was okey).


Cheers,
Martin

I'm not using it on my 6.0 servers.

You can try bigsister for some of this:
http://bigsister.graeff.com./

But coding to check apache is trivial.  I have rolled my own apache monitor 
as the daemon doesn't die but will stop responding at times.
