' is alive' : ' is dead', "\n"; DESCRIPTION Watchdog::Service is an extension for monitoring services running on a Unix host. The class provides a trivial method for determining whether a service is alive. More sophisticated methods can be implemented by creating subclasses of Watchdog::Service e.g. Watchdog::HTTPService uses the status of an HTTP 'GET' method to decide if a web server is alive. -----== Posted via Deja News, The Leader in Internet Discussion ==----- http://www.dejanews.com/rg_mkgrp.xp Create Your Own Free Member Forum .
