Of course this is only relevant if you actually want to be running the web interface.

Personally, we use about 30 cobalt raqs, with just SSH and the bare essentials 
running. While the Web front end has it's place, it's not essential - anything that 
isn't essential is a possible security risk! ....or so my mother told me.

In answer to your original question though, the program that does the checking and 
complaining, is /usr/local/sbin/swatch, with it's config scripts et al hiding in 
/etc/cobalt/swatch.

It's called from cron every now and again to moan about what it doesn't see running.

Cheers,

Richard.
