I'm trying to figure out how to start a program such that it won't die
when the program's grandparent dies (I think the grandparent is the
session leader).
Here's the scenario:
1) lighttpd/PHP calls ash-prog-A.
2) ash-prog-A starts ash-prog-B (a long-running program that
needs to keep running when lighttpd gets stopped).
I've tried both "nohup &" and "start-stop-daemon -S", and neither
work: ash-prog-B continues to run after ash-prog-A exits, but when
lighttpd is stopped, ash-prog-B dies.
IIRC, one solves this problem in bash by using the "disown" built-in.
How does one do something similar with busybox/ash?
