Re: [ic] Auto Restart when IC server is down

[Corey Gilmore <cfg@dln.uvm.edu>]

You might want to do it at a service level?

Either
while true; do /path/to/interchange; done


or use the tools at
http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html

The link file is compiled (written C i think) so you would need to fix it
at the source level and recompile.  Prob better to just make a crontab
entry and check every 5 minutes to see if ic is running.

man crontab
man 5 crontab
.cfg
