I think the scripts may need to be restructured to accomplish this
goal.  The scripts construct a slightly complicated command to start a
server and then execute that command using "ssh -q".  The problem is
the -q options that suppresses error messages.

Instead of doing this, we could execute a script remotely using ssh
and not use the -q option.  The script would execute the slightly
complex command to start the server, supress noise, and reliably
detect if the process started or not.  Thoughts?
