UNIX email
Is there a way UNIX can send an email to users when there is a problem in the system or a defunct process that needs to be killed?

yes.
you start with a script that monitors stuff of intrest then you have a line of code that sends the email (man mailx) then you call the script often using cron. so you may have code like this..... Code:
#!/bin/sh DHCP=`ps -ef | grep dhcpd | grep -v grep | wc -l` if [ $DHCP -gt 0 ] ; then echo OK else echo "DHCP not running!!" mailx -s "Server problem" bob@bob.com fi then in cron you have this called every half hour.
