Various OS flavors will have different ways of doing this, so here's a collection point for scripts you might use in those environments.

Gentoo Linux and derivatives

Gentoo-handle_initscript.mht works for me as /etc/init.d/handle for startup, but stop isn't working yet. This needs a companion /etc/conf.d/handle defining DSPACE_HOME and HANDLE_HOME to point to the DSpace installation directory.

Ubuntu 8.04 and 10.04 methods

Edit the file 

/etc/rc.local

and the line 

/home/dspace/bin/start-handle-server

. This is assuming of course that your DSpace home is: 

/home/dspace

.
See: http://wiki.lib.sun.ac.za/index.php/SUNScholar/Handle_Server for more info.

RedHat RHEL5 and CentOS

handle.lso works for me as /etc/init.d/handle. Be sure to customize the script for your environment, setting the default values for TOMCAT_USER, DSPACE_DIR, JAVA_HOME, JRE_HOME.

Debian-based distributions
