health 0.1.1, 2005-01-03
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


by rck <http://www.kiesler.at/>



Based on the needs of the phpws support forum (http://phpwsforums.com/)
I've created my first phpws module. I'd recommend it to run all the time.
As soon, as you log in as a deity, it will do it's checking and show you,
wether there are any problems.


Checks right now include:

	- are the filesystems /, /tmp or /var full or crowded?
	- is safe mode on?
	- is there enough memory allocated for php?
	- how much memory does php use actually?
	- is the server unix based?
	- is phpwebsite running on apache?
	- are file uploads enabled?
	- is phpwebsite caching enabled?


Installing health is rather easy. Just put it in the mod-directory
like any other phpwebsite module and boost it. Health will be running
all the time from now on, as soon as a deity logs in. Other users or
guests won't take any processing power of your server.
