I'm trying to implement a deamon using and example I found at: ftp://ftp.cncware.com/pub/fpc/daemon.pp

I've of course had to make several changes to support a more recent compiler, mostly adding fp in front of some of the methods.

Everything compiles fine, and the process forks and dumps directly to the console as expected.

However, it's not letting everything go... when I log out of ssh after running it, the session still hangs. I can't launch the daemon from a PHP script (which was the plan) because it causes the apache routine running it to hang.

Any ideas?
