      Hi,

      send email when stop detected

      using the mail settings of System: Advanced: Notifications

      It would really help to be automtically notified of frequent restarts.

      Thanks for the great package anyway!

      R, Max

            The new version loaded from the Packages menu. But the code is not visible in GitHUb Packages repo - I guess the back-end repo is not syncing to the GitHub copy?

              It should be synchronizing to github again now. There was a bit of corruption in the local copy of the github packages repo on the box that does the sync, but garga was able to fix it up and now it's up to speed once more.

                  Service Watchdog is a great tool and since the e-mail notification is added is nearly perfect.

                  One more request… Is there a way to add a check box for each service to say "don't restart service" or similar? Basically when the service stops unplanned send a notification e-mail like it does already but don't actually restart the service. Notify only.

                  Thanks,
                  Mike
