    hmm...I'm confused...

    If Cpanel crashes, will crons run? I suppose they would...but maybe it would be better to fix the crons that keep it running in the first place rather then make-shift a cron "patcH"

    but I would assume something stupid like

    #/bin/sh
    service cpanel start
    exit

    would probably suffice for a cron? I'm not going to spend time restarting my box to test a script for it for you...but, just doesn't seem like a logical solution to the root problem...

    hmmm...
