That is what I was saying is a bad idea. The UT2k4 process is not a vital process and should not be started via the init scripts.

It's vital for me
The server runs only ut2k4 servers and a vsftpd, nothing else is installed or started.

The start-stop-daemon starts the ut2004 server as a unprivileged user ("games")
