I do not know much about your daemon script
Basically i have this java application that i wish to run on reboot/by hand. The java application has its own logging but if for some reason it cannot run, e.g. wrong input parameters then it will crash and write its error to stdout and stderror.

but: - on purpose - the Linux kernel does not support daemonized shell scripts.
I guess that is done for security reasons. It does make me wonder though why do commands such as start-stop-daemon exist then? And could i perhaps achieve the same using those commands?
EDIT:I also found some upstart examples but as i do not have that much experience with linux yet i am not sure if this will solve my problem.

All,
Ok...so I know I *should* be able to control a process's stdin and stdout from the parent by creating pipes and then dup'ing them in the child.
