First of all I want to say that arch has the best wiki documentation. This is my first time using arch, and I have been able to answer all my questions using the wiki.
Usually I use mediatomb, but since Ushare is availiable through pacman I decided to use it instead. Ushare works great when I run it by entering "ushare" in the terminal, but I would like it to start at boot and run in the background. How can I do this?

The package includes an init script. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Daemons

Thanks Raynman. I added ushare to my daemons, and it starts on boot now.
I have a new problem though.
When I start ushare as a daemon my media folder on the tv is empty.
I tried /etc/rc.d/ushare restart, but the same thing happens, empty folder.
If I stop the daemon, and run ushare from the terminal everything works fine.

That is most likely because it runs as a different user. The wiki indicates this can be configured through /etc/conf.d/ushare.

Thanks again Raynman, everything works perfect now. I updated the wiki to include these instructions for others who want to run ushare at boot.
