Try,
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $pgrp = getpgrp;
print "Initial process group $pgrp\n";
$pgrp = setpgrp(0,0);
print "New process group $pgrp\n";
You probably want to tidy up stdin stdout and stderr etc. and all the other standard daemon stuff.

Subject: [Perl-unix-users] daemon program in Perl
Dear,
Is there anyone who has ever used to create a daemon program in Perl?
I like to create one which heavy requests from web clients can be processed.
But my friends say it's not good.
They have mainly 2 reasons.
One is Perl is so invented to process input data & transform, then put out
as a kind of filter. It's not fit to a daemon or a server program.
Another is they don't hear from such a people creating daemon programs.
It is likely unstable, not trustable.
C language is better in such a situation.
In my company we developping system mainly by java, but I don't think
I can create such a daemon in java. I'm new to java.
I think I can make it with Proc::Daemon, HTTP::Daemon or so.
My env.
Solaris 8
Perl 5.005
Best Regards,
Hirosi Taguti
