 .SH NAME
 
 dudki.conf \- The configuration file for the dudki process
 monitoring daemon
 
 .SH SYNOPSIS
 
 The dudki.conf file is a runtime configuration file for the dudki
 process monitoring daemon. It contains the information about the process
 being monitored and the instruction on how to cope with the processes.
 
 .SH FILE FORMAT
 
 The file consist of the global configuration and per-process
 configuration sections. The global configuration controls general
 dudki behaviour and sets defaults for per-process configuration
 directives.
 
 .SH GLOBAL CONFIGURATION
 
 .TP
 \fBCheckInterval\fR \fIseconds\fR
 Specifies interval in seconds at wich dudki performs checks.
 .TP
 \fBDaemonize\fR \fIon/off\fR
 Specifies whether dudki daemon should fork itself into background.
 Normally, you don't want it to run in foreground. Unless you want to run
 it from \fIinit(8)\fR process (I've nevetr tried it) via
 \fIinittab(5)\fR.
 .TP
 \fBPidFile\fR \fIfilename\fR
 Specifies where to store dudki's process id (default is
 /var/run/dudki.pid)
 .TP
 \fBMailtoHeader\fR \fIheader\fR \fIcontent\fR
 Sets global defaults for process section's MailtoHeader directive. See
 below.
 .TP
 \fBNotify\fR \fIschema\fR:\fItarget\fR
 Sets global default for per process notification. See below.
 
 .TP
 \fB<Process\fR \fIidentifier\fR\fB>\fR
 Starts per process configuration section. The process will be referenced
 using the short descriptive name specified (for example in email
 notifications).
 
 .SH PER-PROCESS CONFIGURATION
 
 Per-process configuration sections specifies the processes to monitor.
 And parameters pertaining to the process.
 
 .TP
 \fBPidFile\fR \fIfilename\fR
 Specifies the file where to fetch process id of the process being
 monitored from. The absence of file, as well as the absence of process
 specified by the pid stored in the file signifies the process death and
 triggers restart.
 .TP
+\fBProcessName\fR \fIprocess name\fR
+Specifies the name of the process. The alternative way to find process if it
+doesn't keep pid in the file. Similar to \fBpidof\fR(1).
+.TP
 \fBRestartCommand\fR \fIcommand\fR
 Specifies the command to run in order to restart the process.
 .TP
 \fBUser\fR \fIuser\fR
 Specifies the unix user to change to before executing the command
 specified by \fBRestartCommand\fR.
 .TP
 \fBGroup\fR \fIgroup\fR
 Specifies the unix group to change to before executing the command
 specified by \fBRestartCommand\fR.
 .TP
 \fBChroot\fR \fIpath\fR
 Specifies the directory to set filesystem root to before executing the
 command specified by by \fBRestartCommand\fR.
 .TP
 \fBMailtoHeader\fR \fIheader\fR \fIcontent\fR
 Specifies extra headers to add to mailto: notifications sent by the
 dudki daemon. Headers specified in per-process section override the
 ones specified globally.A
 .TP
 \fBNotify\fR \fIschema\fR:\fItarget\fR
 Specifies the contact to be notified whenever something notable happens
 to the process. The only schema currently supported is 'mailto:'.
 .TP
 \fB</Process>\fR
 Signifies the end of process section.
