Hi, a new runit test package is available through http://smarden.org/runit/ The sv program supports the additional command 'check' to check the requested states of services, utilizing the ./check script if a service is defined to be up. The change-process-state program chpst has been fixed to set limits and adjust nice value first, before optionally dropping permissions. If you use runit regularly, please contribute to the project http://smarden.org/pape/#contribution Thanks, Gerrit.
