Re: BIND 9.1.0 fails badly

Hi.

Actually, check this out, I think it might suit your purpose nicely:

http://open.digicomp.ch/gpl/sawdog/

What is sawdog?

Sawdog is a script which informs the sysops of mission critical servers in
the case of a failure, like a sort of watchdog. The script executes a
given set of Expect scripts, and if one of the Expect scripts fails, it
sends an email or an SMS, or executes a command. You can probe for more
than just reachability because the Expect scripts can check if the
responses on the ports are correct.

Regards,

Michael
