All right, but how is this done? I'll refer to the code I'm using: http://code.activestate.com/recipes/278731/ The first fork happens at line 55, and the second at line 103. As said, I really don't understand this fork/exec business so I don't know what I should do. Which of the many exec* functions in the os module should I run, and with what parameters? The forking without exec already does everything I need it to do daemonizing-wise (except satisfy CoreFoundation), so what am I trying to accomplish? What does CF actually require me to do, and does it mess up or require further changes in the forking methodology I'm using? - Jarkko L. _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
