Service Availability (Web Server)
I am running a simple web server (WinXP and Apache, with mail, ftp, etc, etc) I want to be able to create a home page with server status on so that I can check (remotely) if services are running or not. (if I can do this then I can kick them when they fail!!!)

Does anyone know of a "FREE" application/script that can do the checks for me? - If it only creates a text file with up/down even if one per service this is fine as I can script around the information to produce the desired output.

Services I'd like to check are : HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, SMTP, POP3, IMAP, MYSQL, MSSQL and possibly a few others...

I am guessing it'd need to run something against a port number and then capture the output?

Any ideas welcome (or a solution would be great)...
