at the prompt type:

crontab -e
 (have your default text editor in your .bashrc or .profile)

in the crontab type in:

0,10,20,30,40,50 * * * *   /home/user/Unreal3.0/src/ircd >/dev/null 2>&1

 (this will check the ircd every ten minutes to see if it is running. If 
the ircd is not running it will automatically start it. The ">/dev/null 
2>&1" keeps crontab from sending you email and loading up your inbox with 
crap.)

...save the crontab and everything should be fine.
