*
*  Purpose: psadwatchd checks on an interval of every five seconds to make
*           sure that both kmsgsd and psad are running on the box. If
*           either daemon has died, psadwatchd will restart it and notify
*           each email address in @email_addresses that the daemon has been
*           restarted.
