I use MusicIP headless but on a Clarkconnect 4 box. This is what I did to start MusicMagicServer at boot before SlimServer.
1. Extract MusicIP directory to /usr/local/ (seems as good a place as any). 2. Wrote a start up (init) script, called it MusicMagicServer and dropped it the init.d directory. This was the tricky part as I find bash scripts a bit of a mystery, but what I did was to find an example of a skeleton (in my case RedHat) init script and use it as a starting point. 3. Made symlink "S58MusicMagicServer" in "rc3.d" "rc4.d" "rc5.d" to start MusicMagicServer before SlimServer. 4. Made symlink "K40MusicMagicServer" in "rc0.d" "rc6.d" to kill MusicMagicServer. 5. On CC I can then use "service MusicMagicServer start" etc. You could have a look at some init scripts on ubuntu, copy and alter to suit. Here is a handy tutorial for using init scripts on Debian based systems that may be of some use. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d39izaupvEg Hope this is of some help and good luck.
