[PLUG] POE server startups.

[Roderick A. Anderson]

I asked on the Portland Perlmongers but got no replies so I'll bother 
folks on this list.  Sorry for the overlap.

I have created a POE based server (a framework for creating event-driven 
multitasking programs in Perl not PoE - Power over Ethernet) and now 
need to have it started when the system starts and kept up and running.

I'm still pretty new to POE servers and have not found this addressed in 
the docs ... so far.

Anyone worked up a non-traditional service server?  Non-traditional as 
in being written in something besides C/C++ or another compiled language?

I've looked at an entry in /etc/inittab, /etc/rc.d/rc.local, or using a 
System-V type script.  Not sure of the pros and cons of each of these.

Any suggestions?


Thanks,
Rod
