Hi,

Install the "daemon" Linux package. This one allows to correctly fork processes into background. It also creates PID files and set the user account on starting. After that you only need a upstart (e.g. used on ubuntu) or init.d script to start it on boot. Alternatively add it as @reboot cron job for any user it should run under.
