Can it run as a daemon?

We are looking at Mendelson AS2 as a possible replacement for Cleo Lexicom.

We run Lexicom on a Linux box with no GUI. If we need to start the GUI for configuration purposes we use an X server (Xming) on another computer on our LAN. Otherwise, it runs in the background as a daemon.

Can Mendelson similarly run as a daemon with no GUI?

neilparks1,

the commercial version contains a server without gui. In the open source version server and client are bundled in one package. A good solution is xvnc in this case.

Hi,

we're running Mendelson without GUI using Xvfb on a RedHat-box
using the following commands:

Xvfb :1 &
export DISPLAY=:1
nohup java $ARGS de.mendelson.comm.as2.AS2 >>mendelson.log &

I think Xvfb is part of X11.
