Question : Run a service upon startup in Linux (Festival)

I just downloaded and installed festival on my Linux box. Festival is a text-to-speech program and has a "server" that listens on TCP to perform TTS tasks. The festival server is being used by a number of programs on the box.

I need the festival server to execute when I turn the box on. Right now I have to manually issue

festival --server

To turn it on, and then as soon as I close putty it dies. How do I do this so that it runs in the background when the machine is turned on?

Answer : Run a service upon startup in Linux (Festival)

add that line
/etc/rc.local file

vi /etc/rc.local

so when sever will restart that proramm will restart automaticaly and will run always
