swiki server

Here is an init script for debian linux. The only things that have to be changed are:

DIR ( the place where the swiki folder will be)
DAEMON (the path to whereever the binary was installed)
and perhaps
ARGS to adjust the memory usage of the swiki to your system
a user to run the squeak vm as should be created, in this example it was named swiki

(Save this as Text to use it or better (less fiddling) use the gzipped version.) It can then be copied into /etc/init.d
cp swiki /etc/init.d
its permissions corrected / made executable with
chown root:root /etc/init.d/swiki
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/swiki
and then the appropriate symlinks have to be set to automate start and stop:

update-rc.d swiki defaults 90 14
