freebsd-ports/sysutils/monitord/pkg-descr
Doug Barton 2fadfa2cfb For ports maintained by ports@FreeBSD.org, remove names and/or
e-mail addresses from the pkg-descr file that could reasonably
be mistaken for maintainer contact information in order to avoid
confusion on the part of users looking for support. As a pleasant
side effect this also avoids confusion and/or frustration for people
who are no longer maintaining those ports.

This port allows one to monitor other standalone services and
automatically restart them if they are accidentally and unwittingly
terminated, or crash either because of instability or a DoS attack.
It simplifies a task capable of being performed by cron(8) by not
requiring custom scripts to be written for each service being
monitored. The configuration file is simple and easily setup.
Note: version 0.4.1 has a different configuration file format and
any previous configuration file should be updated accordingly.
