I will be writing my first daemon in php and I have a couple really basic questions that I need help with.

1) What packages need to be installed on my linux server and Does anything in PHP need to be enabled? So far I have gotten this - http://pear.php.net/package/System_Daemon/download
2) Where on server do I save my daemon files? 
3) I have a number of files that need to be included within the daemon that contain classes and functions for gathering emails and attachments through IMAP.  All of these files are currently in my web public directory, how do I include these files within my daemon?

I think that is everything I need to get started. Thanks so much!
