Upstart script for monit on Ubuntu 10.04

monit.conf

# This is an event.d (upstart) script to keep monit running.
# To install disable the old way of doing things:
#
#   /etc/init.d/monit stop && update-rc.d -f monit remove
#
# then put this script here:
#
#   /etc/init/monit.conf
#
# and reload upstart configuration:
#
#   initctl reload-configuration
#
# You can manually start and stop monit like this:
# 
# start monit
# stop monit
