Summary: Server instance controller process
Initial Comment:
Since some time we have added an option to nsd to fork
twice instead of once when putting itself in the background.
This way we have created one additional server instance
which is now

Why just not put this logic on the C-level in the

Wouldn't it be better to run nsd as an NT service?
Do services automatically restart when they abnormally terminate?
I think that's what Zoran's trying to accomplish, here.

I haven't used daemontools yet, but does running nsd under daemontools
require you to run nsd -f? Or, will daemontools monitor the PID of nsd
and do the right thing if nsd disappears?

Because of the added complexity of maintaining and setting up
different piece of software. We use just one nsd instance in our
solution and

It monitors the process, not the PID. If nsd dies, it restarts it, based
on starting it with 'svc

We have it running for about 3 years already. No need to develop anything
since it is already there. It does not change anything related to the main
server so it needs no extra testing.
It is just an C-equivalent of your

Zoran, I disagree.
Me too! It sounds like a more native way of controlling the process. I
can't count the number of cases of reported failure to properly install
and setup daemontools to work.
I don't like the alternative of using inittab, which requires root privs
to do
