I have something like this in my rc.local scripts on my FreeBSD boxes.

/usr/local/sbin/spread -n `hostname` &
sleep 10
/usr/local/sbin/wackamole

Works fine for me.

A really neat feature for Spread would be to have it setsid and fork 
only after it drops in to state 1, gstate 1.  This way, any services 
could be started at boot after spread is started and will be sure it is 
up and connectable.
