JW|> Thanks for any help!

I am running it on start up using this:

/ect/init.d/binkd

=== Cut ===
#! /bin/bash
#
# BinkD          Start/Stop the BinkD Daemon.
#

# Source function library.
if [ -f /etc/init.d/functions ] ; then
        . /etc/init.d/functions
elif [ -f /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions ] ; then
        . /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
else
        exit 0
fi

RETVAL=0

# See how we were called.

prog="BinkD"

start() {
        echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
        daemon --user fido /opt/fido/bin/binkd /opt/fido/etc/binkd.cfg -D -C -q
        RETVAL=$?
         echo
         [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/binkd
        return $RETVAL
}

stop() {
        echo -n $"Stopping $prog: "
        killproc binkd
        RETVAL=$?
        echo
        [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/binkd
        return $RETVAL
}

restart() {
        stop
        start
}

reload() {
        echo -n $"Reloading BinkD daemon configuration: "
        killproc binkd -HUP
        retval=$?
        echo
        return $RETVAL
}

case "$1" in
  start)
        start
        ;;
  stop)
        stop
        ;;
  restart)
        restart
        ;;
  reload)
        reload
        ;;
 condrestart)
        [ -f /var/lock/subsys/binkd ] && restart || :
        ;;
  *)
        echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|reload|restart|condrestart}"
        exit 1
esac

exit $?

Now this is on a Fedora Core 2 machine (upgraded from a RH 9.0) so YMMV.

Just put the Start and Kill in the appropriate runtimes and you are set.

Of course, since I have never run Debian, I have no idea if this will also work 
for you, but hopefully, it will at least point you in some direction.
