don't forget stdin! i don't know if it's really needed but i think it keeps my ssh from hanging when i exit (maybe because some process still has the pty open as stdin?) `nohup /usr/local/sbin/relaydelay.pl $CONFIG >/var/log/relaydelay.lg 2> +&1 </dev/null &` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

If you want to detach from the tty, and from session group, then use Proc::Daemon. It handles all the details of the double fork, creating new session group, and closing all filehandles. You will need to reopen stderr or stdout after the process becomes a daemon.	[reply]
