This is how we deliver all our applications. We dump a core
with
swank in the image, and start that on our client machines
under
detachtty. If we need to take a quick peek at something, we
use
attachtty to connect to the repl, and if there's something
involved,
we use slime to connect to the swank server.
It's all started as root from /etc/init.d with su.
I could provide details or even a simplified version of our
setup if
it would help.
