IRCDWATCH(8)

NAME

ircdwatch - Daemon for monitoring ircd and ircd.conf

SYNOPSIS

ircdwatch [ --kill ] [ --rest ] [ --help ]

DESCRIPTION

ircdwatch is a daemon that periodically checks that the ircd daemon is running, restarting it of necessary. This daemon can also be configured (at compile time) to check for changes to the ircd configuration file and make ircd reload its configuration file by sending it a SIGHUP signal. Given command line arguments ircdwatch will serve as a remote control for stopping both ircdwatch and ircd or just ircdwatch.

OPTIONS

--kill Stop both ircd and ircdwatch --rest Stop ircdwatch but leave ircd running --help List command line arguments
