Hi, I have a small daemon type program that I would like to run. It maintains a communication channel via sockets with another copy of itself.
I would like it to always be running, and if it dies, I wish to restart it. The debian package "run" is suitable for this task, however the author warns that is it not a good program. As an alternate approach it seems to me that an entry in the /etc/inittab something like: my:2:respawn:/usr/local/bin/mydaemon would do just the right thing. Has anyone ever done something like this? thanks, Stuart
