Hello ppunnam,
I use the following steps to make a process a deamon process,
step 1.
use a fork ( ) to fork a child process
step 2.
Exit the parent process.
step 3.
In child use setpgrp ( ) , this will disassociate the process from terminals
the deamon process is ready you can compile and run the program with out using " & ".
These steps has worked for me.
good luck
