Right. the man page says that setsid will fail if the process is already the session leader. It says that in order to ensure success, you should fork, then exit the parent and call setsid in the child. I haven't looked at the code at all to see what circumstances would cause it to behave differently. -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
