I have setup an LDAP server watchdog before with OpenLDAP and
Daemontools. It works like a charm.
To work with daemontools, a daemon should be able to start without
forking itself into the background, e.g. with -f switch or similar,
and log all of it's output to stdout (access, errors, etc). OpenLDAP
can do this, but I don't believe that FDS can (although it would
certainly be a great feature to add because daemontools really kick ass).
The Daemontools look very handy! I run qmail under them but hadn't paid
enough attention.
If ns-slapd is started with -d<error level> it will not fork-and-exit
and it logs errors to stdout. That's how to launch ns-slapd in debugger
and avoid having to follow children. You can use the regular
start-slapd script to pass arguments, like "start-slapd -d0" for normal
log level.
