Daniel,

You might want to have a look at Dan Bernstein's daemontools 
(http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html). Once installed, daemontools monitors 
processes defined under a /service directory, bringing them up 
automatically on boot. The benefit over a simple init script is that 
daemontools continues to monitor launched processes, resurrecting any 
that die unexpectedly.

Regards,
Danny.
