NAME
       innwatch - monitor innd.

SYNOPSIS
       innwatch [ -l logfile ] [ -t seconds ]

DESCRIPTION
       Innwatch	 is  normally  started	by  rc.news.   It periodically — every
       <innwatchsleeptime in inn.conf> seconds — examines  the	load  average,
       and  the	 number	 of  free blocks and inodes on the spool partition, as
       described by its control file, innwatch.ctl.

       If the load gets too high, or the disk gets too full, it throttles  the
       server.	When the condition restores, it unblocks the server.  In addi‐
       tion, on each pass through the loop it will check the logfile  <pathlog
       in inn.conf>/news.crit to see if it has been modified, and send mail to
       the news administrator if so.

       Upon receipt of an interrupt signal (SIGINT), innwatch will report  its
       status in the file <pathrun in inn.conf>/innwatch.status.

OPTIONS
       -l logfile
	      To  specify  a  log  file	 to  watch,  other than the default of
	      news.crit, use the ``-l'' flag.

       -t seconds
	      To change the  period  between  checks  from  the	 default  from
	      inn.conf , use the ``-t'' flag.
