Hello Aaron,

It's been a long time I use CentOS
>From what I do remember it doesn't have `start-stop-daemon` by default
I was able to build it from sources and to use

According "foreground job" /etc/init.d/* are usual shell scripts
you should be able to run any command in it as both background and
foreground process using `&`
i.e. if you have `start-stop-daemon` and it works just edit init.d
script by appending `&` like this: `start-stop-daemon ... all params
here.........  &`
