Hi all,

I need to use some watchdog software for monitor certain daemons (like postfix, squid, etc) aka cluster suite does. Somebody knows any kind of software???

I'm not sure what exactly you want to monitor, but if it like 'watch them over
to not die, and restart them if they died' than daemontools fits perfect for the
job. You start your daemons under daemontools, and then it's daemontools' job to
watch over them. It checks them about every 2 seconds, and if they died, it just
restarts them back.

That's how I run all my daemons :)

You can find collections of run scripts for various services on the net, here are
a couple of such sites:

Good luck!
