Actually, I wish to be able to run my web projects on average good web hosting. Here 'average good' mean hosting must provide things like ssh and gcc. Having these, I'll be able to compile runit in my home directory and use it as part of my project. But there 0.0001% chance web hosting admins will know about runit and even less chance they will use it... and even less chance they agree to add runsvdir for my project to their system services. So, only way to (re)start my own services automatically after reboot is cron. > runsv guarantees singleton processes. runsv - yes, but is runsvdir guarantees this too? -- WBR, Alex.
