from time import sleep while True: # Try to connect. May want to spawn a subprocess running a simple shell script # Handle success / failure appropriately sleep 5*60 # Sleep for 5 minutes What you monitor is up to you. At a basic level, you can see if the server is accepting connections. At a higher level, see if you can get a page or see if you can login as a specific person. At a higher level, you may want to check what is on the page or what happens when you log in. It's all up to you. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
