Hi All,

I'm running Misterhouse as my main controller.
Approximately every 3..8 days it crashes and the only cure is a windows
restart.

What I'm looking for is an xAP application that can reside on the same
windows PC as the MH box and monitor xAP status messages being sent from
Misterhouse.
If the messages stopped for a defined period then the xAP watchdog
application, comes to the front and warns of a reboot in 60 seconds, if no
user action is taken, then the watchdog application restarts the PC.
A log of the xAP watchdog actions i.e. MH stopped, user aborted automatic
shutdown or restart, would also be nice.

Does anything like this exist?


Regards,

Neil Wrightson.
