daemons

[Bogdan Taru]

        Hi everyone,

 I've got an 'exotic' programming problem for you: how can I make a
daemon? I know that a daemon is a child process who's parent died
(sounds morbid, doesn't it?...). I've tried to build something on this,
but without much success (I don't get the shell prompt until the child
dies too...). And I thought maybe you can help me with examples or even
sources for existing daemons...

Thanks & Have fun,
bogdan
