Very *nice*

Do you think you could modify it so that it will ring you and tell you when 
you've been hacked?

Or how about an X.509 authentication module so that you can securely tell the 
script to bring the server up/down?

An SMS interface would be really cool... no need for an ISDN card, work 
through a free SMS provider on the net........ via SSL of course (this is a 
security list)

;-)


p.s. I'm sorry for the OT response, its friday afternoon and I've nothing 
better to do (except a kernel upgrade, thanks Roman & all at SUSE Sec.)
