Hi Martin, I use the attached ruby script ( based on one i googled, and probably not the best ruby as it was my intro to the language...) and a crontab line like this 0 */3 * * * $HOME/bin/webcheck.rb -v -m [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.example.com command line is -v send emails for an OK test also, otherwise only send on website failure -m email_addr who to send the notification email to (has a default in the code, typ used for testing) URL the URL of the site / page being tested. This was written to monitor a friends business page when he was having 'issues' with the windows noddies who bought the isp... they deleted the DNS configs in the first week and sites 'just vanished' as the caches dried up .... and in the second week 'Whats a shell server' and it shutdown ....
