I am not sure what you mean by a daemon vs. rc.local. Adding
something to rc.local is a quick hack, but you might want to
add a script to /etc/init.d and offering start/stop services
so things run more cleanly.

I didn't have the original question, but I do something similar using
rc.local to start a game server on bootup. Is there a pointer or
reference or example on how to do a start/stop services script like
this?

If it is an small embedded device would it have the entire /etc/init.d/
system? I doubt it, they may only have rc.local?
If you have /etc/init.d, use it, otherwise it doesn't hurt to use rc.local.
