This file is subject change, but it's worth a good read. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/aaron/aaron/doc/architecture I need to clean up it's format a bit, but I think it's a good start. A few of my ideas changed or at least the verbosity at which I explained them. Still.... I think this puppy could be pretty damn cool. The only thing that I haven't added to the mix here is security. =20 I need to add security in terms of file integrity and user permissions. Right now this is basically a system that executes code from root. Before the code is executed I should probably copy the code to an anonymous temp file, MD5 the file and compare the resulting MD5 with a security database, and then execute the code or dynamically load the module from the anonymous file. Just my thought... I need to flush it out a bit more though. I don't see any reason why aaron shouldn't replace cron at this point. Unix has been hurting for this kind of functionality for a long time (I think) and I'm pretty excited to start coding here in the next week or so. Dynamic code execution through arbitrary metrics: neat. -sc --=20 Sean Chittenden |
