What is start-stop-daemon ?
The problem I have is that I can find absolutely no documentation
on "start-stop-daemon". There is a useless stub of a man page
that directs one to the --help output or the source code.
/sbin/start-stop-daemon is apparently a perl script, but I do
not know perl no

Hi!
I'm taking part in the DES Challenge coordinated effort, which means
running their client and calculating keys. Now this thing is easy to
use and stays in the background, but every time I reboot I have to
restart the program. Now my aproach was to write a little script put
it into /etc/init.d/
