hey Jean-Paul, I'm using twistd - if you see the daemon code it's in there to start and manage the service.
For some reason the OC Daemon pastebin linkted didn't work but this one does: OC Daemon that starts the OC Service http://pastebin.com/g0UE7An8 still know don't know what to change to get the service to run and detach from the parent process. Any help is appreciated.
