Sure, that would be an option if the system has e-mail configured, but since I use webmail, I went with the 'sit and wait' method. For other projects that script would obviously need a different strategy (though I don't other projects are running winetest.exe daily ;-)).
Having the private vncserver or Xnest session is more important than the polling method.
You should be able to turn your script in to a proper service without much trouble, the following psudo-init script is a snippet of the serivce I wrote. start() { echo -n $"winecis spam" /usr/bin/vncserver -geometry 1152x900 -depth 16 :$DISPLAY >> /var/log/vncserver.log 2>&1 doaustinswinecismagic RETVAL=$? echo [ $RETVAL = 0 ] return $RETVAL }
stop() {..}
restart() {..}
etc,etc...
