Put a fetch command in your crontab. Experiment so that it emails you  
only when it fails.

 #/bin/sh
 
 wget http://target.url
 if [ $? -eq 0 ]
 then
   echo Site is up
 else
   echo Site is down
 fi
 
 Or is this too naive and simple?

Typically I do:

#!/bin/sh

WGET=/usr/local/bin/wget
DIFF=/usr/bin/diff
MAIL=/usr/bin/mail
CAT=/bin/cat
RM=/bin/rm
MAILFILE=/tmp/site_report
MY_URL=http://www.mydomain.com
MY_PAGE=index.html
MY_REF_PAGE=/usr/local/www/good/index.html


cd /tmp
$WGET $MY_URL/$MY_PAGE
$DIFF $MY_PAGE $MY_REF_PAGE
if [ $? -eq 1 ]
   echo Site is down  $MAILFILE
   echo$MAILFILE
   echo Bad page retrieved:  $MAILFILE
   $CAT $MY_PAGE  $MAILFILE
   echo$MAILFILE
   $MAIL -s Website Problem Report [EMAIL PROTECTED]  $MAILFILE
fi


This will verify the page is being served, and the content is correct.

Hi Martin,

I use the attached ruby script ( based on one i googled, and probably
not the best ruby
as it was my intro to the language...)
and a crontab line like this

0 */3 * * * $HOME/bin/webcheck.rb -v -m [EMAIL PROTECTED]
http://www.example.com

command line is

-v  send emails for an OK test also, otherwise only
send on website failure
-m email_addr   who to send the notification email to (has a default in
the code, typ used for testing)
URL the URL of the site / page being tested.

This was written to monitor a friends business page when he was having
'issues' 
with the windows noddies who bought the isp... they deleted the DNS
configs in the first week
and sites 'just vanished' as the caches dried up  and in the second
week 
'Whats a shell server' and it shutdown  (the saga continued)
