Instructions:
1.	Install expect and sudo packages
	apt-get install expect
	apt-get install sudo
2.	Create a special user account with a password and using the bash shell.
	NOTE: replace all occurrances (below) of <SPECIALUSER> and <PASSWORD>
		with the name of your special user and it's password.
3.	make a '/root/scripts' directory and install the following scripts in it:
	3.a	restartOpenSim
	3.b	expect.in
	3.c	LOS
	3.d	KOS
4.	create the '/home/OSimLogs' directory to contain the OpenSim logs.
5.	set up the crontab for root using the entry found below.
Addendum:
	I am working on using monit to monitor the OpenSim and automatically run /root/scripts/KOS
	whenever required. At the moment I have to login to the server as root and run 'KOS'
	manually when OpenSim hangs up.
Explanation:
	The cronjob makes sure that restartOpenSim is running. It attempts to start it every 10 minutes.
	The script itself goes to great lengths to ensure that only one instance of it actually runs.
	If it ever dies you will have to remove the file '/root/scripts/ROS.running' to allow a fresh
	instance of it to run.
	the restartOpenSim script will (if needed) start expect running the expect.in script.
	expect will spawn a login shell and login to the special user account. This will cause the
	execution of sudo to run LOS which in turn will launch OpenSim with logging to '/home/OSimLogs'
	directory. The log files will be date and time stamped.
