I would like to create a semaphore file in the filesystem (/tmp/restart maybe?) and then poll that file from a cron job to see if a certain daemon should be restarted. But, how on earth do one create such an object?

Write an ExternalMethod that does this in Python. Very straightforward. Can't do it in a PythonScript since they access the filesystem. -- Joel BURTON | joel@joelburton.com | joelburton.com | aim: wjoelburton Independent Knowledge Management Consultant
