As I stated in my previous mail, I misunderstood this, my bad, sorry for the
false alert.
Interestingly in the Samba code the setsid() call comes _after_ the fork()
(see my previous e-mail) and that seems to work just fine. So it looks like
the order suggested is not an absolute requirement; any thoughts on this?
