[luau] server question

[Charles Lockhart]

Hello,

I've got an embedded device on which I need to run a small server 
program.  It basically provides a client with access to some custom 
hardware.  What I've been doing is telnetting in to the device, then 
starting the server.  What I'd like to do is integrate the server more 
tightly with the system, and have it come up with the system.

Would this be a candidate for daemon process?  Or would it be better to 
just add a startup entry in the rc.local file?

Thanks,

-Charles
