2. Same issue, Bamt, headless, caseless, etc... I want to set Stratum to start in the startup sequence so if I have to power down the BAMT box Stratum automatically starts up before the mining software does. I know where to put it, in theory, to do so but I need the same issue resolved. If the actual solution to my question #1 won't work in a startup sequence, then I need to know how to do the same thing in the startup sequence.
Put something like this to /etc/rc.local
screen -AmdS proxy /home/youruser/proxydir/mining_proxy.py
Then you can attach console by "screen -x proxy" and detach it (without stopping it) by Ctrl-a,d (double combo)
