[thelist] Local Director checking web server, not application server

[Adrian Gonzales]

<snip>
The problem we have is that when CFMX crashes, the web server is still
running. When the Local Director checks to see if the server is
responding OK, it receives a positive from the server and continues to
direct traffic to the server. Visitors to this server receive errors.

You could have a Chron job run a shell script or a perl app to check if
CF is running. If its not, it can shut down apache and alert the admin.

And if you find out the issues with CFMX on Redhat, let me know because
I have a problem with it too.
