Suggestion: Zone server watchdog daemon
 

I think a valuable addition to the set of EQEmu programs would be a small program that watches over the zone servers and kills hung servers, and replaces them after they die.

Nothing like comming home from work/school and finding that someone managed to crash every one of your zone servers 15 minutes after you left.

It cant be that hard to do, but programmer I am not...

There is a Variable in the database you can set that will reboot lost zones. ;)

in the variables table add
holdzones

that has a value of 1 (being on 0 being off)

VALA crashed zones will now auto reboot
