Simple script - check if program is running
 

Hi, I have small problem, I have a server with ssh access (RSA keys authentication - so without password). I need a check on small period of time, if a specific program is running - if not - run it in screen.

It may be a simple bash script which I could put in my crontab.

Anybody can help me ?
I read a topic:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...unning-383958/
but I don't have an idea, how to use it with ssh, because I can't run it on that server.

Sorry for my poor English.

You could gin up a quick script to run "ps -A" then grep <STDOUT> for the name of the program you are looking for.

Any example ?
I would be glad :)
