Thanks for nohup tip which works fine, but there is another point what
makes me trouble.

My "mother" application has opened some files when calls its daughter
over nohup. But the daugther gets all files opened to its processid.

when I check it with "ls -l /proc/PROCESSID/fd" I see all files linked
to daughter when mother has closed them all. This raises me problems
with next start of mother where daughter is still alive.

How to get rid of this never ending story.

Thanks in advance.
