Here's my script:

****
#!/bin/bash
#
# MOH Server loop
#
clear

while [ 1 ]         # Loop `forever'
do
echo "Starting the server"
cd /home/mohsh01
screen -m -D -S mohsh01 ./spearhead_lnxded +set net_ip 1.1.1.1 +exec 
server.cfg
sleep 60
echo "Done sleeping"

done
*****

I use this command from another script to start my servers:
su mohsh01 -c "/opt/control/mohsh01 &"

I run this as the user "mohsh01" not as root.  Only problem with this is 
there's no web control for it that i can figure out.  I'd love to have a 
looper (as above) with some way to shut the server down over the web.
