At the time the system reboots, no old process will be running any longer. You need to somehow hook into the startup scripts and tell them where to resume. Depending on what system this is, look for how to customize different runlevels. (Debian doesn't use runlevels much; they exist but I don't think a lot of admins are even aware that they exist.)

acctcon2
acctcon(1M) System Administration Commands acctcon(1M)
NAME
acctcon, acctcon1, acctcon2 - connect-time accounting
SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/acct/acctcon [-l lineuse] [-o reboot]
/usr/lib/acct/acctcon1 [-p] [-t] [-l lineuse] [-o reboot]
/usr/lib/acct/acctcon2
DESCRIPTION
acctcon converts a sequence of login/logoff records to total accounting records (see the tacct format in acct.h(3HEAD)). The login/logoff
records are read from standard input. The file /var/adm/wtmpx is usually the source of the login/logoff records; however, because it might
contain corrupted records or system date changes, it should first be fixed using wtmpfix. The fixed version of file /var/adm/wtmpx can then
be redirected to acctcon. The tacct records are written to standard output.
acctcon is a combination of the programs acctcon1 and acctcon2. acctcon1 converts login/logoff records, taken from the fixed /var/adm/wtmpx
file, to ASCII output. acctcon2 reads the ASCII records produced by acctcon1 and converts them to tacct records. acctcon1 can be used with
the -l and -o options, described below, as well as with the -p and -t options.
OPTIONS
-p Print input only, showing line name, login name, and time (in both numeric and date/time formats).
-t acctcon1 maintains a list of lines on which users are logged in. When it reaches the end of its input, it emits a session
record for each line that still appears to be active. It normally assumes that its input is a current file, so that it uses
the current time as the ending time for each session still in progress. The -t flag causes it to use, instead, the last time
found in its input, thus assuring reasonable and repeatable numbers for non-current files.
-l lineuse lineuse is created to contain a summary of line usage showing line name, number of minutes used, percentage of total elapsed
time used, number of sessions charged, number of logins, and number of logoffs. This file helps track line usage, identify
bad lines, and find software and hardware oddities. Hangup, termination of login(1) and termination of the login shell each
generate logoff records, so that the number of logoffs is often three to four times the number of sessions. See init(1M) and
utmpx(4).
-o reboot reboot is filled with an overall record for the accounting period, giving starting time, ending time, number of reboots, and
number of date changes.
EXAMPLES
Example 1 Using the acctcon command.
The acctcon command is typically used as follows:
example% acctcon -l lineuse -o reboots < tmpwtmp > ctacct
The acctcon1 and acctcon2 commands are typically used as follows:
example% acctcon1 -l lineuse -o reboots < tmpwtmp | sort +1n +2 > ctmp
example% acctcon2 < ctmp > ctacct

NOTES
The line usage report is confused by date changes. Use wtmpfix (see fwtmp(1M)), with the /var/adm/wtmpx file as an argument, to correct
this situation.
During a single invocation of any given command, the acctcon, acctcon1, and acctcon2 commands can process a maximum of:
o 6000 distinct session
o 1000 distinct terminal lines
o 2000 distinct login names
If at some point the actual number of any one of these items exceeds the maximum, the command will not succeed.
