Googling for "install startup service linux" (without the quotes) and "linux daemon howto" without quotes gave me this: To write a daemon (you have probably done this already if you have written a server): http://www.netzmafia.de/skripten/unix/linux-daemon-howto.html To install it as a service: http://bitnami.org/article/how-to-install-services-on-linux For example scripts you can open any existing ones to see how they work. They are all in /etc/init.d in most common distros. -- Siddhesh Poyarekar http://siddhesh.in -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
