Description: Watchdog module for the Roxen Challenger web server
This module is meant to "shut off" (in a similar way to the switch
module) parts of the server's virtual filesystem if the server is
experiencing overload conditions. Currently to determine the overload
status the server uses the system's load average via the "uptime"
command. If it exceeds a threshold, the request is denied with a
"server overloaded" HTTP error message. Future versions could assume
the role of a rough traffic shaper too. The module is also fairly
simple, and can be easily customized to fit particular purposes.
