Another thing I'm doing while soak testing an application (pre /etc/init.d startup script) is to run 'screen' as an unpriviledged user, then 'su -' to root (or even better, 'sudo su -') followed by starting the application. At that point CTRL-A CTRL-D will disconnect the session. Later, a quick 'screen -r' gets you back to that console. But agreed, a *NIX 101 book would be beneficial.
