I'm guessing this isn't aimed at Linux users then.. although you could 
do something similar in Linux easily enough with a shell script. I'm 
planning on writing one tomorrow to check how many players are on the 
server. If it goes an hour without any, restart the server. This should 
prevent the memory usage getting out of control (we made it up to almost 
2GB of memory used by the BF2 server earlier today)
