Why use daemontools to keep qmail or clamd running? There's always that
off chance that something might cause the daemon to die unexpectedly... An obscure bug perhaps... And if it happens, I want to ensure that the
daemon is brought back up automatically. At least, I *thought* that's
what daemontools was for... Am I mistaken? (I'm rather new to
daemontools)
No, in your original post you wrote about using daemontools for the freshclam daemon. I understand perfectly that you want to be sure qmail and clamd are running, but freshclam? It has been known to stop and why implement another system to keep it running when you can run it from crontab? Just don't run it at 0 minutes like everyone else. ;-)
