    Why do you need to use Ant Scripts for this? Can't you write a shell script and then drop it in init.d and rc.d to have the service auto started. You can then administer it from the command line.

    GAQ provides a GUI to make it easy to create and schedule simple Groovy scripts which can call Ant tasks as if you were calling methods on an "ant" object. It also provides a GUI for easily viewing and filtering the logs. Since this is all written in Java and uses Quartz for scheduling it can be run anywhere Java runs.


    As to the original question, the GAQ GUI provides a nice way to construct the XML file that the GAQ Server reads in and uses to set up the Quartz tasks, etc. So the GUI can run on your desktop and the Server could run on a separate machine. Does that answer your question?
