Find where things like sendmail and (maybe) gpm are started.
Add something like:
cd /home/mudlogin/circlebpl12/
su mudlogin -c ./autorun&
cd
Of course, change the "mudlogin" to whatever the name of the account is
that normally has control of the mud, and change the path in the first cd
to whereever the mud is run from.
For more info: man su
