Running a daemon in screen can also been useful when for whatever reason the daemon accepts commands via stdin. I know a lot of game servers do this. For example, with the Quake3 server you can use stdin to list users, ban users, change maps, and do other things without having to launch a game client and authenticating as a server admin. Although I guess technically if a server process supports interactive input then its not a "daemon" anymore, but I'm not keeping score. |
