    Do you want files from it to roll over? Will you keep old trace files?

    You'll need to set up a startup proc that will re-start it when the SQL service restarts, or the trace will stop if the server or service is restarted.

    Have a look at last weeks article regards defining a Server Side trace in profiler. This will create the required TSQL which you can then embed in a server startup proc.
