<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">I use a combination of an init
script (utilizing debian's start-stop-daemon) and monit, a process monitoring
utility. I have monit set to start on boot, and it will start any applications
that it is configured to monitor if they weren't already started.<br>
<br>
init script example: <a href="http://www.anarchic-x.com/script/cod2-init.txt" target="_blank">http://www.anarchic-x.com/script/cod2-init.txt</a><br>
<br>
monit can be installed via yum or apt-get<br>
<br>
start-stop-daemon is available on debian/ubuntu, but I can provide an RPM for
CentOS if anyone needs one.</p>
