+This is a basic init.d script for haste-server. This has been tested on a CentOS 5.5 ec2 instance.

+
+Copy and paste it into `/etc/init.d/hasteserver` and then edit these variables in the script according to your installation of haste-server:
+* USER
+* DAEMON
+* ROOT_DIR
+* LOG_FILE
+
+Then `sudo chmod a+x /etc/init.d/hasteserver`
+
+Now you should be able to do `service hasteserver start` and `service hasteserver stop`. 
+
+You can then use chkconfig to start hastebin automatically on every reboot like this:
+
+    sudo chkconfig --add hasteserver
+    sudo chkconfig --level 345 hasteserver on
+    sudo chkconfig --list hasteserver
