Line 125:
: From my perspective, the problem with screen is that it is a manual solution at all. Daemons should run without having someone start them up by hand; after all, if it is a true daemon then it will have been set to be started automatically upon reboot of the machine (or on demand by some automated code that is itself auto-started). While I suppose I could automate screen's startup with the use of expect, the resulting hacked together lash up(/ball of mud/screaming horror from the depths) is enough to give me shivers just thinking about it. Screen is ''not'' a solution to this problem. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 09:43, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
:: screen has arguments to start a detached session, and run a command in that session. <code>screen -dmS <session_name> /path/to/your/server</code>. [[Special:Contributions/24.85.131.247|24.85.131.247]] 04:24, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
