[Mono-list] Console app start at start up?

[Lee]

I have had a bit of difficulty in implementing a socket server as a service
application with mono and have been asked to enter a report in bugzilla
which I have done.  Must I use a service application to have a program run
at startup?

Can a console app be made to start up automatically?  Does that even make
sense to do?

I looked into using xinet.d but it seems that the line buffer is limited to
255 bytes and I will be sending xml packets back and forth that will exceed
that easily.

Thanks again,

Lee
