Kev, braden@ns1:~$ man daemon DAEMON(3) Linux Programmer's Manual DAEMON(3) NAME daemon - run in the background
Anyways, the ircd refuses to release the controlling terminal on startup. Only ircu2.10.12 does that to me. I'm not saying there is anything wrong. I am just saying that it didn't release it on a linux system. If I have the problem someone else might as well.
