As the subject suggests I'm trying to determine how I can

references or examples?
I suggest daemon(3) if it doesn't have to be portable.
Or something like this, if it has to be portable or if you don't want
to modify C code :
nohup /pathto/c-application &
You'll eventually need to add things like redirect stdout to /dev/null...
Ok, many thanks for the suggestions all :). I'm more than happy not
to do the double fork(2) solution =\..
