In other words, you want something that works like Apache [1.x].
* To launch Apache, you run apachectl, a shell script.
* apachectl launches a parent httpd process, which in turns spawns
a pool of listener httpd child processes.
* apachectl goes away then, and the parent httpd supervises the
operation of the server from then on.
Granted, the interesting bits are all done in C or something, so that
may not help you here, but it's the model you're looking for.
