Ask your nix questions here instead?

Just a thought. What if you start the daemon as administrator?
IIRC admin is always "on" but that is only poor memory.

Not sure what account starts the daemon :blush:

I did sudo update-rc.d script_name

root I guess?

Don't quote me on it, but i'm pretty sure sudo just gives your current account certain elevated permissions (that are specified in the sudo configuration). I think you can do something like sudo update-rc.d script_name.sh -u USER.
