It seems that some process during boot goes round issuing some form of kill signal (someone suggested it was HUP, ie re-read config files) to the programs started at boot. You could try running 'nohup' in front of you command ie, "nohup /usr/local/jdk1.1.8/bin/java infostart &" nohup basically says ignore HUP signals. This may work for you, it didn't work for me, but it's worth a try. Does anyone out there have a better understanding of this phenomena?
