    ebegin "Starting hatta"
    start-stop-daemon --start --background --make-pidfile --exec $DAEMON --user hatta --pidfile $PIDFILE --wait 3000 -1 $HATTA_LOG -2 $HATTA_ERR -- $HATTA_DAEMON_ARGS

  start-stop-daemon --stop --exec $DAEMON --pidfile $PIDFILE
  eend $?

#!/usr/bin/python

hatta.main()

Commands to run after creating files

• Add a user for the daemon to use:

useradd -r hatta -d /var/lib/hatta

• Make the init script executable

chmod +x /etc/init.d/hatta

• Create our error logs

touch /var/log/hatta.log /var/log/hatta.err
chown hatta. /var/log/hatta.*

• Make the daemon executable

chmod +x /usr/local/bin/hatta

At this point you should have a system setup with hatta and can stop and start it with /etc/init.d/hatta start
