Greetings to all Gentoo-users! |

Is it somehow possible to check, whether a certain process is running, |
| 4 |
and if not, then start it? I would like to use it for some processes |
| 5 |
that crush sometimes (like teamspeak and some game-servers), and to |
| 6 |
mointor sshd, because it is critical for me (my server will be 300km |
| 7 |
away from me). |

I thought about writing some small shell-script, which would be run |
| 10 |
by cron at regular intervals, check if a process is running (something |
| 11 |
like "ps -e | grep $PROCNAME", or maybe with "pidof -s $PROCNAME") |
| 12 |
and if not, than it would start that process with its script in |
| 13 |
/etc/init.d. |

|

But if there is already something which would do the same, I don't |
| 16 |
want to work on inventing the wheel again. Moreover, my shell scripts |
| 17 |
are rather "quick'n'dirty", so maybe I should start with reading |
| 18 |
"Advanced Bash-Scripting Guide"... |
