We have a PC running win2k pro that currently runs a critical outage handling system. We are getting ready to put that system into production and would like to have a way to check on that application to make sure it is still running and responding properly. If not have a way to sound an alarm or restart the application. Something like that. Anyone have a good way to take care of this?

You might want to instaal the app as a service, you need the resource kit to do so.
Then you can right click the service,click properties, choose recovery, as thirst action you might want to check restart service, and as second your warning, e.g. net send "message" etc, you can figure this one out yourself.

Good luck.

If you use srvany and instsrv from the NT4 resource kit, you can configure this application to run as a service. Then, from the service applet in administrator tools on control panel, you can configure the the service recovery to restart first, second, and subsequant. This will only work if the application is not told to close by the user. If the app dies of its own accord, it will work.
