Hello all, Once in a while the Qpopper on our mail server will just die. I have to go in and issue a "/etc/init.d/openbsd-inetd restart" and it will be backup and running. Has anyone written a script that will run under a cron job that checks to make sure that the pop3 server is running and if not will restart it? Thanks, Ken
The bigger question would be - why is it dying? I think I'd try to figure that out instead.
I've been running qpopper for > 10 years, and never had it "just die". It's been 100% solid.
