Linguist network package - start

Syntax:

   start watchdog

Keyword handler:

   net.eclecity.linguist.network.keyword.NKStart.class

Runtime handler(s):

   net.eclecity.linguist.network.handler.NetworkHDoNetworker.class

Function:

Starts the watchdog task on this computer. This is a background task that runs every ten seconds, sending out a special multicast message that informs the rest of the peer-to-peer system that this machine is still alive. You should only do this on one computer; if you require each one to keep notifying the others of their presence it's best done by getting them to acknowledge back to the one running the watchdog, which can then take appropriate actions if one disappears. See on watchdog.

Example(s):

   start watchdog
