Hi all, |
| 2 |

This is something I have been looking for for a while now, but not found |
| 4 |
anything easily usable yet. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I need a way to add dependencies to services which are provided by different |
| 7 |
servers. For instance, my mail server uses DNS to locate my LDAP server which |
| 8 |
contains the mail aliases. All these are running on different machines. |
| 9 |
Currently, I manually ensure these are all started in the correct sequence, I |
| 10 |
would like to automate this to the point where I can start all 3 servers at |
| 11 |
the same time and have the different services wait for the dependency services |
| 12 |
to be available even though they are on different systems. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
All the dependency systems in the init-systems I could find are all based on |
| 15 |
dependencies on the same server. Does anyone know of something that can |
| 16 |
already provide this type of dependencies? Or do I need to write something |
| 17 |
myself? |
| 18 |
I have been unable to locate anything via Google, but I might be using the |
| 19 |
wrong search words. |

Many thanks, |
